CASH is the impt word here. n they think we cant manage ourselves. actually they shd set assessment for ppl. some are allowed to keep for themselves. for more fruitful investments. rather than ones approved by them.

Kenneve888 4th Gear August 3, 2011 Share August 3, 2011 Many are aware but for the benefit of those who don't. There was sometime ago a change to the CPF Min thingy. Previously: When reach 55, if min sum not enough, you can pledge 50% with your property. Similarly, anything up to 50% of stated min sum can be withdrawn at 55 if property is pledged. eg1: Min sum requirement is $130,000, but you have only $60,000 in RA when reach 55. You can draw out 0 with the shortfall pledged with property. eg2: Min sum requirement is $130,000, but you have only $100,000 in RA when reach 55. You can draw out 35000 with the other half ($65,000) pledged with property. Now: When reach 55, if min sum not enough, you can pledge 50% with your property. But if you have less than the stated min sum, you cannot use property to pledge. eg1: Min sum requirement is $130,000, but you have only $60,000 in RA when reach 55. You can draw out 0 with the shortfall pledged with property. No change. eg2: Min sum requirement is $130,000, but you have only $100,000 in RA when reach 55. You can draw out 0 with the balance pledged with property. (Previously you can draw $35,000.) Eg3: Min sum requirement is $130,000, but you have $140,000 in RA when reach 55. You can draw out 10,000 and no need to pledge with property. (Previously you can draw $75,000) End of the day: Big Zero to draw out from CPF. The above is based on my scanning the CPF website - hope I am right. The question, if so, is: Why the change without making any announcement? Table in Parliament before? Stakeholders'opinions/preference sought? KNN! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph22 Turbocharged August 3, 2011 Share August 3, 2011 This ruling for the increase base on infaltion is out since 10 years ago. that time, already mention they will gradutely increase to a prefixed rate (moving base on inflation.) so dont need to report. you didnt remember 10 years ago news huh?

Zanter 3rd Gear August 3, 2011 Share August 3, 2011 I think by time i retire the minimum sum would be 1,000,0000 dollars, Medisave 500k...wahliew! . Govt dont trust us not to spend money on Sweet China products la, then after that need to KPKB ask Govt for money. Well at least that what ex-MP told me off the record.
