At 65 we get $60k pa ($5k pm combined) from CPF Life
How about your kids’ living expenses, university fees?

Rent out property in SG S$3000 pm
Convert to RM to get RM10,000 pm

Cost of living in Penang

Rent a 2 bedder condo RM1500 pm
Food, utilities, transport RM2000 pm
Travel the world RM2000 pm (RM24,000 pa)
Misc RM2000 pm
Total RM7,500 pm
Savings RM2,500 pm

This is for our retirement from 55 to 65.
When we reach 65, our CPF Life will give us S$5000 pm (S$2500 each)
We can save this S$60,000 pa (or RM195,000 pa) or upgrade our retirement lifestyle

We have achieved FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire early)

I want to burst your bubble. You have not achieved FIRE.
You are planning to retire in a different country. This is a rational decision because you know that you would not be able to live a decent life in Singapore.
I would encourage you to earn enough and have a decent payout so that you can continue living in Singapore. Don't you realise when 'foreigners' come to Singapore, we don't like it. You will face a similar situation in another country.

Here's some insight into tech market since that other guy pointed it out. In tech, there are at least 20+ SG companies that will take in any mediocre dev and let them coast for 5-10 years. There are F500 companies that will promote you every 2-3 years if you put 50% effort in and many more.

You don't just get fired out of the blue lmfao that's nonsense. Also the market is hot for good devs, anyone who is 45 years old and above who are in tech, will most likely be Senior / Principal dev level.

Companies will hire these people over any fresh grads or junior devs regardless of age. Unless you're joining some fresh start-up unicorn, most of the managers at F500 companies are in their 40s and 50s with family. There's no ageism in these companies, they don't give a ****. As long as you do work, show growth, take initiative, make them look good, that's all they care.

Do side gigs if you want, good on you if you do, I respect the hustle but don't spread some ******** and make it sound like working hard at a job is futile since you might get fired out of the blue when that's near impossible in a booming sector like tech.
Lol the last sentence. Eat your words bro.
