Good for you. This life is short. No point working so hard and becoming greedy with wealth. We will all die one day and will not bring anything to the grave. Your cars, houses and money will not follow you to the grave. I see people working so hard and then they die in their 50s and 60s. Didn’t enjoy a single day of retirement. If you have enough to lead a simple life, then retire and enjoy your retirement. You will surely be happier and healthier. I retired in my late 40s after a high flying career and never looked back. I’m a lot happier. I have enough wealth to retire comfortably.

I plan to spend $1500 pm or $18k pa from age 55 to 65. In total I will spend $180k over 10 years. At age 65, I will receive $2000 pm from my CPF Life until I die. I have medical insurance which I bought many years ago.

My plans during retirement

1. Exercise
2. Catch up on sleep
3. Volunteering
4. Learning to cook
5. Participate in community activities
6. Swimming
7. Watching TV and movies
8. Surf the internet
9. Lots of reading
10. Budget travel
11. Meditating
12. New hobbies

Are there any more activities I can do during retirement?

So lucky, I'm mentally prepared that I will have to take courses in table cleaning and cardboard picking when I'm 70 years old

You need to factor in the fact that we're currently living in the era of great monetary inflation. by the time your bond matures u will be only left with a fraction of the value of your principal, due to the acceleration of monetary debasement as central banks pour in trillions of stimulus. To safeguard your wealth in the foreseeable future you need to invest substantially in gold and bitcoin as a portion of your portfolio.
