Who believes in such bullcrap?
Just because a few people lived up to 80 doesn't mean we all will. But I suspect the average life expectancy of Singaporeans is 64. That's why the proposal to raise CPF withdrawal age to 65.........

If they raise retirement age, they can hold on to some of those cash that rightfully belongs to us.Originally posted by the Bear:i think somewhere along the line, some figures were pulled out of someone's ass as a rationale behind attempting to increase retirement age past 70 -

Like I've said, even a Retard after been tricked several time by the same ruse, will wise up...
But I really wonder, who/what make up those 66.6% who stupidly voted for them??? -
yeah, and the majority of them who are happy about gahmen giving the above are old folks. To them gahmen is so good to give them $$$. They don't know that in other western countries the govt do more to care for the people.Originally posted by mistyblue:experience tell us that bonus package/lift upgrading/etc promised before elections always get the party elected.

"lets benchmark top 10 oldest folks in s'pore and we'll get an average of how the life expectency is in s'pore"
"hey, thats a good ideal"
"lets raise the retirement age based on this 'study' "
"wow..a proposal made in heavan indeed.."

Hahaha! The formula or equation they have been using for geting their solution is always the most wonderful one in the world you know? Just like the recent calculation about the fantastic ministers' pay lor! Remember not? Something like getting the highest few to average lor! Those lower one? Not qualified for this type of calculation lah.............Originally posted by rane:Below is from the article "Withdrawal age of CPF Minimum Sum may be raised to 65"
"Singapore may follow-suit, with its CPF system. That is because the average life expectancy of the elderly is now 82. So Singaporeans need to think about how to stretch their savings.

People, do you agree with the above statement? Propaganda!!!! Guess this statement is made just because now they are looking into raising age to 65 for the CPF withdrawal. How reliable is this, where do they get this figure, I wonder!!! Hey, they think majority or everyone here is like MM who lives up to past 80 year of age. Please use their brains, we don't have any choice to decide what age we want to live up to. -
MM can certainly live longest than any of us even 100, so that he can keep on working, to get more salary and waiting for more salary rise in few more year. He never plan to retire. the money from the people, can let him buy the most expensive & best foods, and best medical care expert from the world to cure him, the medical expert will tries their best to cure him.
