  I LOLed at that.
  
  Anyways, retirement? Good question. Well, i just wanna migrate off, and leave my children in Singapore. Taking along only my wife and myself to a seaside where i can watch the sea and sky at night. That'd be great!

  hopefully middle east will be safe
  then i can finally go back pack there
  after that, i wanna spend a few years in china. eat eat eat
  then europe for many years
  
  and if i have not travelled around asia enough by that time, i wanna go to places like thailand, vietnam, cambodia, india etc mi still need to go mongolia! but old liao cannot go...
  
  issue is, whether i will live that long. and most impt, if i have the money to travel.
  
  if not, i will just live in nunavut with the inuits

  Becoming a farmer.....
  You may get to enjoy peace but you may not get to enjoy urban comfort like internet or lcd tv.....

  With $$$.
  1) Get a master in something like art therapy.
  2) Travel to exotic places around the world with husband, grandkids and friends.
  3) take life slowly... perhaps not in Singapore..

  Find a cheap place to live, where medical & transportation is ok. Where crime rate is acceptable.
  
  Own a small place. Cause easy to clean.
  Own simple wheel. Small car or bike also can. Cause easy to maintenance.
  
  All I need is stress free, go fishing days will do. Do not need to be rich. Just enough for very basic stuff will do.
  
  I need inner peace with everyone & the world. Do not need luxary stuff.
