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!

Four ways to optimize your CPF savings



Four ways???

Hmm ...


The 5th way is through successful long-term investing in CPFIS; but it is not easy to achieve by CPF members. Probably; that is the reason why we seldom come across articles or blog posts on CPFIS as one of the ways to optimize CPF.

Can Dividend Investing Support AVERAGE Retirees Over Decades Of Inflation In Their Retirement Lifetime?


Uncle8888 has serious doubt as AVERAGE retiree; he can just depend on dividend investing to support his lifetime household expenses with yearly inflation.

Certainly; he needs more than just dividend investing strategy to be sustainable!

So you believe when you build an investment portfolio to generate the required dividend income to support your household expenses you can FIRE or retire?

Sure?

In long-term investing, your account size really matters - CW8888
