Khyber Neutral Newbie August 31, 2011 Share August 31, 2011 Actually wanna find out how this scheme actually work out. In CPF webby it stated after 55 years old if our CPF did not have the Min SUM then we need to top up cash or pledge our property. What is the meaning of pledging property ? Need to sell? Any bros can enlighten me? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wt_know Supersonic August 31, 2011 Share August 31, 2011 (edited) all the information that you need is found in this thread http://www.mycarforum.com/index.php?showtopic=2664322 in a nutshell a. OA + SA got $123k = you've met min sum = extra (OA+SA - $123k) can take out b. OA + SA got $61.5K + HDB (pledge $61.5K) = you've met min sum = extra (OA+SA - $61.5K) can take out c. OA + SA < $123k and have no HDB = you've not met min sum and just continue to work until lie down ... as simple as that i presume many ordinary folk will fall into category B. if one sell their HDB and go for rental flat will fall into category A. if category c, nothing else to say and just work till the last day On 8/31/2011 at 4:18 AM, Khyber said: Actually wanna find out how this scheme actually work out.
