How much are you earning per annum?

A non materialistic person would not need to repeatedly state his possessions, this is just boasting which is associated with materiaism. Also you like compare people in condo and hdb, if one had no such care for materialism why need to stress who is 2 percent or 1 percent etc.

Easy his writing style, it's very distinct.

Low income dude, 38, makes $50k pa. Spouse, 37, makes $55k pa. Son, 3. House is 4 room BTO flat bought cheap. We are still servicing loan.

Can anyone suggest how I can earn more? I want to save so that I can one day buy an EC. Is driving a cab part time a good idea? How about part time property or insurance agent? Does these jobs pay well? Need sincere advice from the rich and successful guys here. Thank you.

Rough estimate using various wealth mgmt firm data.

Thanks for this. Does the wealth comparison include or exclude primary residence?

Are you the resident property agent making stories again? One guys thinks so.

Middle class couple in our mid 50s earning a combined salary of only $180k pa. Our home, a 3 bedroom condo, is paid up and now worth slightly more than $1.2m. We don't have any other investments (our condo is our best investment since we bought it at $600k in 2003), we only have cash and CPF savings. Our current net worth is about $1.8m. We hope to remain employed till 65. Upon 65, we hope to have a net worth of $2.5m. We will then downsize to a one bedroom condo unit and use the extra cash to buy dividend stocks. We will also get our CPF Life monthly money, so in total our monthly passive income will be $6k pm. I think this would be sufficient as we (my wife and I) just need the money for food, utilities, medical and public transport. We should be spending only $3k pm since we are debt free. Any comments on our retirement plan?

Bonus month coming. Here's what I am going to do with my bonus.

1. Buy brand new car to replace my current old car.
2. Go one week holiday.
3. Buy some stocks.
4. Save for old age.
5. Donate.

What's your plans with your bonus?
