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!

Workfare Payouts (2)


Read? Workfare Payouts


After clarifying with WIS back-end staff' on his eligibility for 2018 WIS;  CPF counter staff finally accepted Uncle8888's appeal for 2018 WIS as self-employed low income worker.

WIS payout as follows:

$200 per month kopi money in 2018!

So Uncle8888 officially contributed +1 to that number of low income workers in Singapore.

    1. Last year i.e. 2017 WIS was disqualified as self-employed status due to one time deferred bonus payment from 2016 from ex-company as I retired and not resigned so I was entitled to pro-rated bonus declared in 2016.

      This CPF counter staff just wanted to be very sure so she checked with WIS back end staff since I was disqualified last year.

      I remarked that CPF policies are often not easy to understand. She replied immediately WIS is not CPF. It is from Government. LOL!

    3. Rental is considered as income. You definitely not counted as low income. Your rental income is median income. LOL!

  2. Beside salary <2K, one has to meet additional criteria:

    ** Live in a property with an annual value3 of more than $13,000 assessed as at 31 December of the preceding year;

    ** does not own two or more properties; or

    **if married:
    you and your spouse together own two or more properties; or
    the assessable income of your spouse for the preceding Year of Assessment exceeds $70,000.

    Unfair leh.

    1. own two or more properties are passive income earners and likely can't be low income. Taxable income from rental more than $20K?
