2. You can sell your 3 bedroom condo and move to a studio condo. Let's say you sell your paid up condo for $1.2m and buy a studio condo for $700k. You will then have cash balance of $500k which you can invest in 5% dividend yield blue chips. This give you $25k pa.

3. Each of your two kids contribute $500 pm. So you get $1000 pm or $12k pa.

In total, you and wife will have passive income = $(45,600 + 25,000 + 12,000) = $82,600 pa or $6,883 pm. This is more than enough if you lead a simple life.

Do not smoke, do not drink, do not gamble, do not womanise, do not overspend, do not employ a maid and do not own a car.
Niama, this sounds like a PAP cut and paste template. Come up with something new pls. Its boring. Is there nothing else new to read... Diu
