Don't worry.

For those retrenched ex-PMETs out there, such as ex-engineers and ex-bankers, do not be sad. Instead of worrying so much, you can just retire assuming you no longer have any dependents at age 55.

Good retirement plan in KL or Penang for a 55 years old retired couple.

Passive income
Rent out fully paid HDB flat S$2.5k pm or RM7.5k pm

KL or Penang cost of living
Rent a 2 bedroom condominium RM1.5k pm
Car expenses RM500 pm (assume buy used car in cash RM30k)
Food, groceries and utilities RM1.5k pm
Misc RM1k pm
Total spending RM4.5k pm
Savings RM3k pm

This retirement plan allows you to live in a condo and drive a car.

Your key retirement asset: HDB flat (we are very fortunate since we all get to buy cheap BTO HDB flats when we got married)

After about 100 job applications only get a chance for 2 interviews.

Both interviews that I went was flooded with candidates, at least that was what I was told by the HR.

Did not get the job and both times the HR informed that I was 2nd in line to be hired. Was so close to nailing it. Feeling very depressed. Anyone same situation as me?

You are still young. Just learn from your mistake. Workplace is never easy. Keep looking for job and try to upgrade yourself.
