therock Supersonic December 6, 2020 Author Share December 6, 2020 https://www.straitstimes.com/business/invest/peter-pans-may-find-themselves-short-of-money-in-old-age Quote They are in their 30s to 50s, mature and inching towards retirement, but they still think they are very young and can, well, live forever - so they tend to spend more rather than save. After all, they keep fit, exercise regularly and are confident they can keep working way past their 60s or even 70s. So why plan for retirement when they don't actually plan to retire at all? In financial planning circles, such people are termed "Peter Pans", after the fictional character in the famous fable who can stay young forever. But the reality is much harsher for these folks because many are likely to find themselves very short of money in old age. If you do not have ample savings and lose your job through no fault of your own, how are you going to support yourself, not for one or two years, but for the next 20? Yes, you think you can still work, but what if jobs are not readily available, such as the situation we now find ourselves in? A recent OCBC survey has uncovered some worrying trends - 75 per cent of Singaporeans not only do not do sufficient planning for retirement, 37 per cent of them actually live by the day and do not even think about saving for old age. "The survey shows that Singaporeans are not very good at planning for retirement and the pandemic has even made it worse," says Ms Koh Ching Ching, OCBC's head of group brand and communications. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
