when I was in my early 30s, one of my retired Principals advised us to buy financial products for retirement, because time flies. She shared with us her experience. Yup! I listened and now I in my mid 50s and I have retired. Thanks to her wisdom.

Its easy to push these things aside when youre young and think you have plenty of time. But the reality is, time flies, and those early years of saving can be very impactful

Sound advice. My friend started saving consistently since her first job and retired at 58yo comfortably. She told me starting and planning young makes a huge difference. Now I am trying very hard to catch up so to have a comfortable retirement in time to come.

I love this Chanel about financial literacy. Progress and personal journey are the message of each guest to viewers!

Just making goal 1 (earn > save > spend) a habit makes everything else fall in line. I've lived across East, Middle East and West, and I have to say having been born in the East goal 1 is something I was taught from childhood.

You have to factor in inflation, basically when you collected enough money, most of its purchasing power is gone.

My advise on those watching this episode, buy things that is required not things that to validate yourself in this new world. New Shoes, New Bags, New Tech all this retail therapy is short team euphoria. Spend on yourself first not materialism but experience. Its never too late.

Changing financial habits is an emotional level of change. It has to come from deep within a person. The person has to psyche and tell him or herself that this is enough, i have to change. Once you have done this, then set goals to achieve financial prudence on focussing on removal of debts, focussing on assets and not liabilities. Set SMART goals, not broad goals. Every goal should have a timeline and it can be measured. It will not work if you set a goal that is too generic. With each accomplishment of of every SMART goal, the person's habit will change.

Good tips. I think financial habits should be developed as soon as possible. Before you even turn 21.
Putting money into your kid's CPF SA to bank on that 4% is also a safe choice. Compound interest baby!

This is the kind of tips I wanted to learn.. thank you 😊

The lady is from MoneyOwl and it's closing shop... looks like they never plan their financials properly too...?

I don't think most Asians have bad financial habits. I immigrated from China to US. Americans are the ones with really bad financial habits. This is why even white Americans have less than half of the wealth of Asian Americans. When I went to study in the US, I was dirt poor, lived in the cheapest and worst neighborhood, but thanks to education, America's fairness to immigrants and the high pay, my wife and I have enough saved for retirement in just 15 years after graduation. Meanwhile I see most Americans wasting money on all sorts of frivolous things then complain they don't have enough savings. 🙄

Regarding MAS guide for insurance coverage, I fail to understand why the guideline for death coverage is 9-10 times annual income. If I'm earning $100k per year, why is it recommended to leave $1mil to my NOK?

Just sharing, in Islamic financial literacy we could care less about the money obsession since our life in earth is only small fragment of 'true life' in afterlife, but yes financial management and how to achieve financial freedom is taught, few such as avoiding debt (except in emergency), avoiding interest, avoid excessive luxury, doing fair work and trade, and doing charity to your communities (at least 2.5% from all of your saving), etc. Hope we can overcome current global challenge together!😃

Why are CNA insider episodes so focused around the host these days? Did she get promoted or something?

Don’t really care what her situation or story is compared to the otherwise well-curated topics.

Interviewee should manage her BMI first before she preach about retirement plans.

Wow! S'poreans are very rich indeed. Many thanks to the PAP govt for bringing them wealth by means of high-paying jobs. ❤❤
