I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Have We truly Understand How Inflation Affects Us And Our Retirement Planning? (2)


Read? Have We truly Understand How Inflation Affects Us And Our Retirement Planning?

So far based on Uncle8888's past 17 years (2002 to 2018) actual data points; he is not too concerned on inflationary impact on future household expenses as he still has some fat to trim during those difficult years.

He is actually spending 8% below the projected multi-years inflationary rate at 2.5% over 17 years since 2002.

Probably, inflation will impact more on those who are already spending at their lowest possible living costs so there is not much fat to trim during hard times.

How to beat inflation?

Spending a bit more to build up those extra fat during good years. LOL!

  1. That's becoz Singapore's inflation over the last 30-40 years has been only about 1.7% per annum.

    And this is including property & car inflation.

    If exclude property & car, will be even lower. Those who had locked in their property price before 1995 will have enjoyed very very low inflation all these decades (probably deflation or close to it!) :)

    1. That is true! We are all impacted by national level inflation in different way along our life journey. All not of us are the same. We should do our retirement planning based on our life journey and not based on some theoretical number provided by financial advisers.
