Hi CreateWealth8888,
From reading your blog, it seems like you are a fan of CPF. To persuade a savvy CPF fan to buy an annuity is really quite an achievement for a salesman, even if the product is good.
If you don't mind, may I ask what is your rationale for buying the annuity? Mainly for the low interest? If interest rate shoots up later, are you allowed to exit? If yes, at what penalty?
I wish you all the best in this new annuity plan!

“She could sell ice to Eskimos” LOL!
Pointers are "
1. Single premium insurance also contributes to your AUM computation for service fees.
2. Surrender value at $160K is more than $144K loan at Day One so there will be NO margin call and NO penalty fee.
3. Just treat it as $144K margin account with your own free up cash of $144K to take advantage of lower interest rate environment over the next 10 year or at least till 2023 as indicated by FED
4. $144K free up cash for higher return to offset loan interest. You savvy investor. Right? LOL!
What are the options for Eskimo after buying Ice?
1. As Saver
Voluntarily CPF Contribution of $37,740 per year for the next 4 years
CPF Allocation rate for above 65
OA 1% SA 1% MA 10.5%
Since Uncle8888 has already reached MA BHS so 10.5% allocation in MA will flow into OA i.e. OA 11.5% SA 1%
$37,740 VC into CPF to earn total interest of $988 in year 1 (negative return on loan of $144K)
$37,740 VC into CPF to earn total interest of $988*2 = $1,977 in year 2 (likely to be positive return on loan of $144K)
$37,740 VC into CPF to earn total interest of $988*3 = $2,966 in year 3 (more likely to be positive return on loan of $144K)
$30,780 VC (Total $144K over 4 yrs) into CPF to earn total interest of $3,772 in year 4 to 20 (Repay loan with no penalty at breakeven point) and monthly income from Month 37 onwards
2. As Investor leveraging on own margin account without Margin Call
Learn from FIRE Masterclass Guru
Leverage on basket of S-REITs?

Hmm CW,
ReplyDeleteI haven answer Hyom or I could not fathom enough. Any impact if interest rate raises? Is 10 years and is a long time
Typo, I mean U have not ...
ReplyDeleteWhen future interest rate rises above CPF interests or investment return; I can redeem the loan and pump in own capital $144K and hold till Year 20 or surrender at breakeven year.
DeleteIf that scenario really happens; it proves that I am really suck at leveraging on lower interest rate for next few years to breakeven. :-(
In 2020, something new happen LOL!
1. Invest in ETF
2. Expose to overseas mkt - HK Tech
3. Leveraging on low interest rate
But still Koala/Panda investor. Cant change much. LOL
