How to generate another RA tap?

  How to generate another RA tap? Savings have to be deliberate intention and discipline; putting aside the money or reinvest the cashback and let it compound. My learning from my colleague single policy: *Single $100k @6% (quite decent dividend/interest) put aside for 20year. a. $100k×(1.06^(20) = $320k maturity sum b. Then withdraw it over next 20-years; $100k×(1.06^(20)÷(20×12) = $1.33k p.m.  It gives $1.33k p.m. every month for 20-years. c. My colleague chose to save $280k total !! age 48 to 55yo.  He started late and hence shorter runway to compound. *$280k ×(1.05^(10)÷(10×12) = $3.8k p.m.  But it is still good to enjoy $3.8k p.m. from 65 yo to 75yo. My Takeaway 1. Be it any saving instrument, stocks or endowment or CPF-SA, build up and reinvest or compound it, the principle sum has to be of bigger sum like $200k or $300k portfolio. (The bigger the better, just no quick return and get scammed.) Small portfolio, small outcome.

Can retire with $1k monthly? got bluff me?

  Someone who is my cohort just retired last year.  He candidly shared that his average monthly expenses is less than $1000. Some background that I gathered: 1.  Married with a working adult child. 2.  Stay in condo; ever spinned n profited from few property sales. 3.  Still need to support aged parent with 4 siblings. 4. No car. So I did some quick calculation to see sure or not to retire with $1k monthly expenses. Think his $1k p.m. is thin retirement. Utility & PS, water : $100 p.m. Telco: $20 p.m.  MCST: $200 p.m. (where got so low maintenance?) Medishieldlife: $800 / 12= $66 p.m. (can pay by CPF-MA) H&S Shield Plan: $1200 / 12 = $100 p.m. (excluded $680 deducted from MA) Support his parents: $2000/5 = $400. Basic fixed monthly overhead:  100+20+200+100 + 400 = $820 With just $1000 p.m., net available for meal = $1000 - $820 = $180 p.m. (or $6 per day) Not forgetting that he just retired, he need to fully pay his last year personal income t...

AIA 20yr endowment payout at 6.6%, can trust?

One of my cohorts shared on his recent NEW endowment policy bought with AIA after 1 Jul 2021. It was his first endowment bought. Jul 2021: Single Premium: $45k paid at age 57 After Year-10,  Projected payout of $1k p.m. (or $12k p.a.) annually every year from Year-11 to Year-20 (at age 67 to 77). ($45k becomes $120k.) I worked it out on the Xirr calculator to be compounded return of 6.6%; wow it is simply too very good to believe. Based on my knowledge, I shared that if, by then, it's actual payout is $750 p.m. or $9k p.a., he should be laughing every month, at 4.6% compounded xirr rate of return; (highly unlikely to get $1k p.m.) While I agree that AIA is one of the best performing fund for past few years, this projected payout is too good to believe. I also shared a similiar 20-year INCOME Revoretire of $60k premium, payout Year-11 to 20 payout of $9.3k p.a. or $93k p.a. ($60k will become $93k) I am not insurance agent.  But I spoke to him with 10-years experience buying 18 ...
