How are we doing

Better than me

48/50, $5k and $6k pm respectively. Lives in an old EC bought many years ago, still servicing mortgage. One son and one daughter, both in poly.

Our assets: condo, car, CPF, stocks, cash savings.
Total net worth: $1.2m, including our condo.

How are we doing? How can we plan for retirement at 60?

couple, mid 40s, total took in $450k last FY.
owns a fully paid condo $1.5M, just booked a car $250k
2 kids, elder is in premium boy secondary school
waiting to buy a second property
Life is good in Singapore with the incumbent government

Not lying here. In fact I know quite a number who are doing much better.

if your goal was not to stroke egos, you have pretty much facilitated bad behavior and confirmed the poster's "dream".

How are we doing

After so many hundreds and thousands of posts, the ONE important factor which men don't mention here is INHERITANCE. Always compare with a pinch of salt here as no one will mention how much of their assets was inherited.

The only measure that can be "fairly" compared how well one is doing, is to gauge the income level. Assets/cash wise should be viewed with caution..eg. no one will mention how much their parents contributed to their first or second pte property when they bought at "the lowest point" or whether they got their car as a gift (therefore saving 100k over 10 years).

Therefore there's no need to feel upset, depressed, or accuse others of posting fake numbers (though this is a possibility as well) once we remember that most ppl are not completely honest when it comes to their assets.
