Do you make quarter of a million dollars a year at 30? If not then sorry, hope in this case cannot be shared.

Do not be a fool in this temporary world.

Don't waste all your life working so hard, hoarding so much wealth and then die leaving behind your big fortune for your wife and children to enjoy. Your wealth doesn't follow you to your grave.

It's ok to work hard to accumulate just enough for you and wife to retire comfortably. It's however stupid to work so hard until you don't have time to enjoy your wealth. There are people who work so hard to accumulate millions thinking they will retire at 65 to enjoy their wealth. But they die at 50 due to high stress, lack of sleep, poor diet, no exercise, overweight, etc.

I don't plan to work until I'm so old. I'm not going to leave behind a big fortune for my children. I will just give them a good education and they will make use of their education to earn a good living for themselves. I don't want to spoil them. I came from a low income family but worked my way up. My children too can achieve that. I will not work so hard to afford a big bungalow. Why should I? If I work another 20 years just so that I can buy the big bungalow at the expense of my retirement, then it's stupid.

I will retire at 55. By then I will be debt free. I will retire in place in my 3 bedroom condominium apartment where I can enjoy the many facilities. I will have enough cash and investments for me to retire well. I want to make the best use of my time in retirement to explore the world leisurely. I also want to learn new things and read lots of books which I have no time for. I want to exercise more and keep fit. I want to do social work to help those in need.

I want to have a full life and not be a fool in life.

Well it was a long shot, given that her call-to-action was "He earns $150k.p.a", and his was "she sounds hot".

Still, what a fairytale it would have been huh. Many years from now, Dad tells his children "I met Mom when she was a money-grubbing gold digger seeking out prospective husbands via online forums". Mom tells them "I met Dad when he was a superficial lurker looking to hook up with SYTs on online forums".

Age: 29
Annual salary excluding bonus: ~$500k in a sales job
Married with 2 child. Sole breadwinner
Savings: $400k
House: GCB at Sentosa Cove
Car: Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita

I leave my investments in the trusted hands of my personal banker who has looked after the wealth of my family three-generations before. Currently, my investments generate a good yield of 10% p.a. and are reinvested to give me greater returns. I spend my free time bringing my family to dine at hawker centres because we prefer hawker food compared to the pretentious fine dining.
