Evillusion Supersonic January 31, 2019 Share January 31, 2019 Correct, should be adjust those working adult employer rate up, for those above 55, give more cash instead of making them keep more in CPF.for once they should increase the cpf interest rates for our rf......5-6% is good. If they do this, i will surely put my money in the retirement fund and see it grow! Knn.......i will even be willing to dump my oa into rf to get that 18-20k gain per annum. wah who is ak? is he a guru? can learn from him foc? i peasant always like to learn new things one ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In view of the growing senior population, time to adjust to keep these people who are employed and get sufficient cpf for retirement since the retirement age extend to 67 now. Oh yah, my mistake, he is not kee chiu. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats good if you have lots of cash on hand or do not need much cash for daily expenses. but one day if u need it for emergency or medical etc (or some relatives need to money for ops ) , you can take it out from CPF . With that long term placed in CPF , Frankly it is just like FD. There is no extra benefit vs the cons. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RF starts at 55 that means you have a decade of income still forthcoming unless tio retrench or have health issue which is already minimally covered with income shield and others offered under medisave (have not count private plans). About relatives who needs help......help when you can afford it because i am very sure they will also think likewise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are always two sides to a coin. 37% employee contribution! The additional percentages coming from employer pocket? From business perspectives either let those elder folk go or propose to freeze any wage increment. Take home pay reduced while money still within cpf care and we all know how hard just to make withdrawal sum from cpf board. I agreed with evillusion that the cpf interest rate should rise and not the contribution rate, solely for the reason company can maintain it competitive edge. In another word ah gong pocket.

Ct3833 Supersonic February 18, 2019 Share February 18, 2019 (edited) 60% of the people who have reached 65 year old but did not withdraw money from their SRS? it looks like a good trend, meaning these people are financially capable. But not sure how many % of them did not withdraw money because they do not know they could . Look at it positively, if anyone is desperate, he would explore all sources to get money, to say a person does not know he could withdraw money from CPF is quite unlikely. Of course, assuming the statistic is truthful, no data laundry. https://www.zaobao.com.sg/realtime/singapore/story20190218-932869 Edited February 18, 2019 by Ct3833 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ct3833 Supersonic February 18, 2019 Share February 18, 2019 (edited) it is why i said provided no data laundry. If based on purely chinese language, " 可领取" meaning eligible to withdraw. And one more, if a person reaches 65, does he still need minimum sum in his SRS before he could withdraw money? need to read the fine print. 六成会员到了可领取入息年龄没有取钱 Edited February 18, 2019 by Ct3833 ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
