CPF@55 Policy Designed to Make the Rich Richer!

CPF@55  Policy Designed to Make the Rich Richer! Do you know that  CPF@55  policy can help you get richer with a bigger SA (Special Account Balance) after 55? Yes, provided your are rich with a big OA (Ordinary Account Balance) and SA which exceeds the FRS (Full Retirement Sum).  Assuming you have $240k (SA), $160k (OA) and FRS is $200k, this is how you can become richer after 55: 1.  2 weeks before your 55th birthday, buy a stable Unit Trust Bond Fund with $200k SA under CPFIS/SA investment scheme (minimum $40k SA must be maintained) 2.  On your 55th birthday, CPFB will transfer $40k (SA) and $160k (OA) to your RA (Retirement Account) to form $200k FRS. 3.  Next day, sell your CPFIS/SA investment of $200k, this will be returned to your SA. 4.  You now have $200k (SA) and $0 (OA) after RA is created!

LIFE@55 - What CPFB Don't Tell You!

CPFB started to talk about Risk Pooling only in April 2019 after being queried at Parliament. They have never talked about Risk Pooling since CPF Life was introduced, not even in any Life@55 Talks! Do you know are there other important information CPFB is still not telling you at Life@55 or @facebook? In the past (eg 2014), members have to decide/choose their CPF Life Plan (ie Standard vs Basic) at 55 and part-CPF Life annuity premiums would be deducted from their Retirement Account (RA) for transfer to the CPF Life Pool. Only at 65 when monthly payout starts will the reminder of the CPF Life annuity premiums be transferred from RA to CPF Life Pool. For members turning 55 after July 2015, they only need to choose their CPF Life Plan (ie Standard, Basic or Escalating Plan) if they decide to start payout at 65 or delay till 70. Most members will choose their CPF Life Plan based on guidelines provided by CPFB as follows: Choose Standard Plan if you want more monie

NTUC Fairprice Shares pays 5% dividend!

Yesterday I received the NTUC Fairprice Co-operative's dividend and rebate statement for financial year ended March 31, 2008. I was surprised to receive so much money for this investment! I was holding more shares than I thought. I received 5% dividend and 4% in rebate, which had already been credited to my bank account on September 5, 2008. Too bad, that's the maximum each member can hold. Another very good Capital Protected Dividend Stock to own! Ntuc Income Share Pays 9% Dividend for 2009, credited June 3 2010
