I'm almost 50 so no experience so to speak

How are your cpf balances relative to your other assets set aside for retirement?

But i probably plan for ERS

Ah and happy birthday in advance.

Thank you!

CPF is about 1/3 of the total holdings. Leaning toward ERS as well, but wanted to hear other opinions before deciding

That’s a nice back up plan.

personally, for my own plan, the interests from CPF will form 1/3 of my retirement income.

I am hard core gambler but I won after 45 years of gambling.
