CW,
ReplyDeleteSimple primary school math.
If a person "only" needs $50K per year to be financially free, then all he/she needs is to save $50K per year for 20 years. One million dollars invested with conservative 5% yield will provide $50K for life!
Start work at 25? Then can retire early at 45! Easy peasy! Just through save more only!!!
But if married and husband or wife stay at home never work, then we either have to save $100K for 20 years or $50K for 40 years.
Start work at 25, retire financially free at 65 by saving $50K per year. Just nice can collect "bonus" CPF Life payouts too!
Again, just through save more only! Look! Anyone and everyone can do it!!!
That's until the rubber hits the road...
When you realise you earn less than $100K per year...
Those who earn more than $100K per year can just rely on save more.
Earn less than $100K per year?
Perhaps that's why so many are willing to pay thousands of dollars for workshops and courses to learn how to EARN MORE!?
Those who pay to learn how to save more I don't know what to say... Can't figure things out for themselves?
Now you know why even at 80 or 90 years young, so many HDB heartlanders still queue to buy Toto!
I set a target to save more than 50%, and at gross I do achieve it. But after deducting the cpf contributions, loan payments, and srs contributions, there really isnt a lot left.
ReplyDeleteI hate myself why i try to save so hard, but still not in a position to buy a car, or afford a nice holiday like my peers.
I seriously don't know how these people do it. I need help.
