We are older than you as we are in our late 40s. We are now retired. We sold our landed property at the recent peak of the market and made a huge profit. We then moved into a two bedroom condo unit which we paid in cash. Our son is going to NS and we have set aside money for his uni studies.

Our passive income from our investments is now more than our household expenses. We can still afford to own a small car which we use for marketing and going around places in Singapore. We are leading a happy, active retirement. It is a far cry from our stressful, busy schedule in our previous work in the finance sector. We spend a lot of time reading, exercising and enjoying the relaxed pace of life. We are also actively volunteering in charities to give back to society.

Our total net worth is only about $1.3m. How are we doing? Are we among the low performers in our age group? Anyone here about our age doing worse than us? We think we are not doing as well as many of our peers. Please share about yourself or someone you know. Thank you.
