What do you mean by giving you ? Something you cannot touch and use?Originally posted by Gazelle:Exactly, at the same time, your CPF prdinary account is still giving you 2.5% interest. btw, you dont get any interest if you pay tax.
As we all know that Singaporeans are bloody materialistic people, if there is no CPF I would say that many singaporeans will be living in the street.
Do you want to be forced to give me your $$$ so that I can return you more $$$ after 20 years?
Why are you sure you will get back your shrunk $$$. -

Sorry, I didnt include the fact that you can use the money to invest in stock gold etc that what will surpass any tax hike and inflation. (btw inflation in Singapore is definitely below 2.5%)Originally posted by Hogzilla:Ya. Gazelle didn't put inflation, tax hike into account.
Yeah there is definitely risk, but I think the risk of spend all you earn is higher. -
Why people still pay tax after paying CPF ?? Coz income "high" enough to pay tax on top of CPF ?
So how much is Tax plus Indirect Taxes anyway? -
I think you should do more travelling before making such silly comments.Originally posted by pinkish purple papayas:shows ur maturity. sigh... i hope u succeed in life. -
Maybe you should travel within your own country to see who have a positive bank account?Originally posted by Gazelle:I think you should do more travelling before making such silly comments.
And how many will eventually end up in the streets, and how many already are. -
Majority of Singapore dont pay income tax and tax rate in Singapore is already among the lowest in the world for develop nation. If you want tax free, go to monaco or switzerland, thats provided you can afford it.Originally posted by NotFromVenus:Why people still pay tax after paying CPF ??

"Don't pay income tax, but pay a compulsory Fixed deposit?" and promised you will get back your shrunken $$$ after many donkey years , even in unemployment you are not having any reason to withdraw your own $$$ , they hope you starve to death so that they can use your CPF to pay for your processing.Originally posted by Gazelle:Majority of Singapore dont pay income tax and tax rate in Singapore is already among the lowest in the world for develop nation.

Before you start criticizing the system, why dont you tell us how much have you contribute into the system.Originally posted by NotFromVenus:"Don't pay income tax, but pay a compulsory Fixed deposit?" and promised you will get back your shrunken $$$ after many donkey years , even in unemployment you are not having any reason to withdraw your own $$$ , they hope you starve to death so that they can use your CPF to pay for your processing.
As far as I know, nobody in Singapore in Singapore will starve to death if you are willing to get out of your comfort zone to find yourself a job. -

Please show me actual statistics of taxi drivers who are of the above background before you make such a sweeping statement.Originally posted by Gazelle:You mean those young, educated and lazy who thinks that driving taxi is like being your own boss?

If you want to statistic you can go to any taxi company and they will tell you that many new taxi drivers have given up because driving taxi is not the same as being your own boss.Originally posted by NotFromVenus:Please show me actual statistics of taxi drivers who are of the above background before you make such a sweeping statement.
