Tips on Retirement Planning

Tips on Retirement Planning

Principles of Retirement Planning

  • Assess your retirement needs early by determining what lifestyle you want to live
  • Plan on how much money you need each year to afford it
  • Develop a saving plan, a different jar for retirement
  • Save, save, save!
  • Save before you spend!

Why Retirement Planning is Important?

  • You can't work forever
  • You may live long
  • You want to enjoy life after working hard
  • Good healthcare is expensive (but there are government hospitals)
  • Alluring holiday is expensive
  • You want to be financially independent at old age
  • You don't want to burden your kids
  • You want to leave something for your kids

By starting to SAVE in your retirement early on in your career, your funds will accumulate and grow over time, leaving you with sufficient fund to fulfill your retirement dream.
