How to get things we need or want for free forever?

Eight out of twelve young Singaporeans have yet to plan for their golden years.

A reader asked on Facebook what was the point of the blog which I posted last evening?

Alamak. AK is a mental blogger lah.

Most of the time, he is just talking nonsense. Crazy fellow.

I like to think that everyone's life can be better and it should be better if we have been prudent with money and if we have not been too unlucky in life.

I also like to get things I need and want for free. If I can get someone else to pay for things I need or want in life (legally and ethically), I would.



Regular readers might remember that I said I invested in QAF because I want free bread. Old Chang Kee? I want free curry puffs.

So, what about investing in NTUC Income for income? I want to have some life insurance coverage for free.

Of course, don't take what I say literally but you get the idea.

The writing is on the wall.

Most of us are not born with a silver spoon in our mouth. We have to find our own way in life and, hopefully, we do not end up in hole full of snakes or spikes.

Snakes are natural while spikes are man made. Yes, there are people out there who are hunting other people.

We have to learn and avoid such holes.

Yes, it is something I am reminded of on a yearly basis.

This is money I stashed away donkey years ago and till this day, I am still enjoying the benefits.

I have probably taken back all my money and if the company continues to do well, I will continue to receive some pocket money on a yearly basis.

Of course, on its own, it is not a lot of money but if we focus on the absolute sum, we miss the point.

"Aiyoh, I can only invest $5,000. 6% is only $300 a year. So little. Don't bother lah. Waste time lah."

Continue saying something like that and, all else being equal, really, don't bother thinking about a comfortable retirement. Waste time lah.
