Only can say the bank offer these black cards to low ses retirees with their available balance unlike those flashy gold, titanium ones for employees with income🤣

Retirees use car to ferry their family members like elderly parents etc especially with mobility issues and if ownself go out only then just take public transport🤣 some have car in order to give their family the convenience and not all want to impress

As I said, depend on individuals.

I do care-giving work for my old folks sometimes up to 4 times a week to the polyclinics/hospitals.  I use Grab because it can simply drop me and the old folks at the main entrance and I can immediately go register with them.

If drive, finding car park is an issue  and the car park fees would have been crazy. Each time to these places is at least half a day.

Take other people money still need to see their face and be treated like dog at their beck and call. As salaryman,  money not easy to earn. furthermore already getting old so just retire, have a peaceful life and talk cock🤣

Yes, you are right, car isnt necessry at all for retiree, purely a luxury.   But its a luxury i need so its 100% necessary for me.  😂
Now i have 2 cars and a Harley.  Next time i will just have one car and a bike (hobby)

lol...As long the car gives you joy and financially not an issue, why not.....👍

I have many friends who have attachment to their cars, so I fully understand.

Even one with a fully paid house, also do not dare to retire with just 750k. It may look quite alot at one shot but tough to last for next 25-30 years which is why many still continue to work lor🤣

Understand and agree what you mean. But to a lot of ordinary income folks, 750k might sound like a dream, so dont say until so jia lat. 😅 some prople can livebwith 2k per month of retirement life, diff folks diff stroke, that is the reality.

My dream was the opposite. Dreamt i was in meeting telling people to do this and that and also fighting with one b**tard FT MD. Then i woke up it was 9plus on Tuesday and i felt shiok that i didnt have to get ready to go to work, just wake up later for lunch and cigar.

To be honest, many many retirees are premier or privilege banking customers, only need $1-2mil to qualify. So no need to be too competitive.  If want to compete, then dont retire, continue to slog

I have no attachment to my vehicles.  Wheels just mean freedom to me, thats all. So in future, one car is good enough for me and wife.   Bike is for shiok, can do without since i hardly ever ride.  Last year i probably clocked 150km on my bike

Whether retirement is going to be boring or enjoyable, it all boils down to amount of funds available. If limited then dare not spend too much so stick to boring routine lifestyle scare money overspend  then will run out one day. Those with abundant ones, have more choices lor, they take opportunity to gain new experiences  in life or maybe a new  hobby etc  they are not much into material possessions 🤣
