Since my last day of work 31/3/25 in Singapore I have been sleeping late and waking up late too. I woke up at 1.18pm today. Well, its ok to be lazy and carefree now since I'm not working.

Later need to clear the front yard and do some cementing in the front yard and back yard too.

I'm having a coffee break before I start the clearing...weather is sunny and bright here now...



Later when I'm done I probably will go for a walk around my neighbourhood and eat something...


Its good to plan ur retirement with sufficient savings. Most important is stay healthy. It can wipe out ur total savings

I don't have a house at Horizon Hills. Mine is at Bukit Indah. Most of the time in SG.
I think you know what to do and where to return home to if you feel like you want to stop working indefinitely...provided you have no more financial debts and live a debt free life OR no children Or your children are all grown up and working Or you have good savings in SG and convert some to RM for your life in JB.

Ok good.

Just continue working until such times or you feel its TIME for you to do it. Don't depend on SG Gov to plan for your retirement Or depend on your CPF for retirement...

I bought a condominium near the RTS, where I will stay, and then take a shuttle bus to the RTS to come to Singapore occasionally.
So you have a landed property and a condo unit near RTS. Which Condo unit you bought? You possess good financial management.

Yea too cheap alr for some. If 1 day sgd falls alot vs rm then show starts😂
SG Gov will never allow SGD to drop lower than RM. Even to make it same value with RM they can't do that. SG Gov need strong dollars to import goods cheap and at the same time attract foreigners to work in SG.

The way I see SGD will always appreciate against RM.

Singapore is just a good place to earn money.

Other than that...
Majority of foreign workers say this statement, "Singapore is a good place to work and make money but to live here and retire here is not a good place. When work in SG also cannot afford to fall sick because the medical treatment very expensive."
