You are doing well. Let's say you are now 40 years old. By 60, you would have saved $700k. Invest this in a 5% dividend yield portfolio to get $35k pa in dividends. If you have two kids and they each give you $500 pm, you will get an extra $12k pa. your total passive income will be $47k pa or $3.9k pm. When you reach 65, your cpf life will give you $3600 pm or $43.2k pa and your passive income will be $90.2k pa.

We currently have no debts as we managed to clear them off gradually. Our total net worth is $1.2m, comprising our condo, CPF funds and some cash.

Our concern is whether we can retire at the age of 60. Can any financial gurus here give some ideas how can we prepare for retirement? Thanks.

Thanks a lot for your advice. We are excited of the prospect of retiring at 60.
