come to think of it,

 

$9k isn't enough nia....

 

but better than nothing....

[Watwheels]

I think ppl are more concern about "Right hand give, Left hand take back....much more".

Didn't really bother cos I know eventually it'll be sucked back and then some.

Have stopped listening and reading about these craps for years now.

[Zztensor]

i get the impression tat it's mainly for those serving ns n the regulars....the reservists might not get very much.

[Macrosszero]

Its not 9k cash is it? 9k into CPF?

[Ferraricalifornia]

yes....

 

$9k into PSEA (Post Secondary-school Education Account),

 

where the leftovers will be credited into CPF....

 

so it's not cash....

[Versatile]

$9K GO TO CPF. MEANING MONEY STILL CANNOT TAKE OUT AND IT'S STILL GOVERNMENT'S MONEY.

 

WAKE UP, SINGAPOREAN!!

[Norzahari]

If you dun like, you can donate out to Charity and you still enjoy 2.5X tax relief. I think you better wake up. This 9K is still money and can help to pay your mortgage loan for 9 months (conservatively at 1K per month) if you are jobless.

I think ppl cannot expect receiving 9k into their cpf straight one shot thru. Must be bit by bit. Maybe for those finish NS 2k, after that for every ICT high key 1k, total 7 high key so 7k, grand total 9k. LPPL.

[Pufferfish1]

damn, i pes e . get no s--t
