66.6k per year = 5.56k per month

His salary after tax and expenses got even 5.56k/month bo? Don’t tell me he fking balls deep invest in Bitcoin
A simpler explanation, without any fancy numbers, would be to claim nominated CPF monies at 18 years old, and claim trust funds / estate funds at 21 years old.

there are many safe bets in equity, considering SATS (at current price) and also defensive play like e.g Sheng siong.

if not simply buy into a index like S&P and you will make your money worth 20-30 years later, unless america will be down 20 years later.

nobody know where a stock will go, but think of stocks as a company like they are

the worse thing you can keep is cash, what do you want so much cash for? the value of it depricate every year, if u want to be extremely safe, top up CPF is a viable option too, you get compound interest.

Worst thing is to keep cash.
Worse advice ever. If one is young, greedy, inexperienced and did not do due diligence then go all in on stocks then all the money earned goes to the drain. Lots of people got burned in meme stocks and options. One even lost his life.

And cash is cool when you get retrenched. Don't be fool into thinking just because one is young one cannot be retrenched. And its also a fallacy to think you will get a job quickly if you are retrenchedeven if you are young, in todays job market.

boomer train of thoughts basically. buying into a world etf or even just the s&p 500 etf is not as volatile as you think it is. analyse the drawdown % and balance it with bond to the drawdown% that allow you to sleep well at night.

Why not? She did say she is female so skipped 2 years of NS. And she never said she studied for a degree. So entirely possible.
