It will be easier to hv a comfy retirement if u starts to plan at an early age

set aside 20% or 30% of ur monthly income into some sort of insurance...where you will reap the benefits when u reach ur golden age

According to research, assuming that we retire at 55 and live till 75, we need 750 grand as expenses. That is per person.
As for those who are under employed, their earnings must be very high to achieve this kind of saving.

I have friends who had retired and yet they are still working.
It seems that the savings plus EPF can't save the days.

Dunno why this retirement post reminded me of an issue brought up by my member lepak-lepak:

"young females nowadays prefer older,fat-walletted guys"
- a sure way to go for an early retirement comfortably, without having to work 3/4 of your life?
