Earn abt $130k pa and this will be my final year working before retiring. Have $500k cash and $500k CPF. I'm not including my wife funds as I would like her money to be hers.

During my retirement from 58 yrs to 65 yrs (8 yrs), I will just do a simple drawdown from my $500k cash component of $4k each month. Which means i will drawdown say, $50k pa. Multiply by 8 yrs total drawdown amt will be $400k. The $100k is buffer funds.

I have $300k lock up in the RA ERS and Medisave account. The excess $200k is now earning compound interest. After 65 yrs, I will be able to have a monthy sum of $3k ($2k from CPF ERS for life and $1k from my excess funds for 20 yrs).

My wife will be working and she will pay for our maid salary and levy. That means we can continue to have a maid.

I have plans to buy an EA or EM at max $700k and cash out my current flat. The balance monies will be used to co-fund my gals tertiary education if so required.

Right, i am figuring out how to spend my retirement time.
Your post sounds like a csb.

For a parent, you should know that your retirement age is pretty much defined by the age of your youngest child and not simplistic financial calculation.

I am a parent.
