What do you want for retirement?

[Lemonjuice]

What's your retirement dream?

I was chatting with colleagues on retirement. Like what to do, where to stay, what kind of lifestyle.

The answers are get are like to be with wife, travel with wife, pursue hobby etc.

My answers are different though. I want to feel the sweetness of courtship with others, thrill of ONS/FWB, drinking and clubbing and waking up with a hot chick every other week.

This is aspirational but it's just thoughts. Anyone feel the same?

1st ask yourself how much u have for retirement b4 dreaming what u want

I was having a late lunch at a coffeeshop. Behind me sat a couple. Probably 2 tables away. The guy spoke quite loudly. I think he is quite elderly and is probably hard of hearing. I was looking at my phone minding my own business. What caught my attention was when he said $1200 per month. then I slowly ate my lunch and listen. Luckily my back is facing them so they don't know I am listening in. When I left, I turned around to look at them to a few seconds before returning my tray.

So the uncle (around 65-70) is proposing $1200 per month to a (50-55) year old PRC lady. She has to move in with him, clean his house, prepare his meals and sleep with him. She gets to save on rental and have an extra source of income. She also don't have to squeeze in a HDB flat with 10 other strangers. She is quite embarrassed because the whole kopitiam knows what they are talking about. $1200 per month gets you a maid plus sex buddy. I doubt the PRC lady can find a better offer.

Good deal? Good retirement option?

Live in two suitcases. Travel the world. Sample local "dishes" for a month or so and keep moving from country to country. This would be the best retirement plan I could think of....

PAP has done such a good job people so free and comfortable they can write this sort of rubbish.

Class A ward in a community hospital is approx $250/day, excluding medicine..

Hospital will require a down payment every 20 days, either cash or credit card. So that's easily $5,000 every 20 days. This is before deduction from your Medisave or Medishield.

Deduction from both account is a single deduction per month capped at $2,500 So you have to pay the difference in cash...

If hospitalization stay is short, recover and discharged within a week, I think that's still can manage.

But if the stay is long because of complication or the patient is at end stage of life, it may be a stay of a month, or even longer....the bill will continue to pile on.

Even if you have balance or excess in your Medisave, you can't touch it at all because of the capped of $2.5k/month.

Anything more incurred, like a single immunotherapy drug (for some cancer patient) can easily cost $6.5k. And this usually required every 3 weeks for 6-7 sessions. So, any extra you have to cough out cash...

In conclusion, you can get sick in Singapore but better hope and pray you die fast (especially if you don't have any private insurance).
