Bro plutus,

Honest to goodness just yesterday or the day before I was thinking of you and 2 things came to mind.
The first was I believe you also qualify for the Ah Pek Club leow and secondly, quite long no picture no sound from you leow.
For many of us Ah Peks in this thread, we need to plan for retirement by having enough in our RA to get a good enough payout
and supplement our monthly income from trading or investment. Some of us here may have properties to give us a 3rd stream
of income, ie. rental. But you are in a different league. You have a business which probably gave you very good income during
the bulk of your working life. Plus your business is still ongoing and will continue to give you income going forward.

Nevertheless, it is never wrong to plan for retirement to retire well and be comfortable. As for you, since you have the funds, just
max out your RA to the prevailing ERS. Every year in January, ERS will be revised upwards. That' s when you can top up your RA
to the new ERS. Just have to remember to do the top-up every year by mid-Jan so that the new funds can start earning interest in
the following month in February for greater interest compounding effect.

I appreciate all your unselfish sharing on how to retire wisely.  wavehunter      ( Date: 03-Jun-2026 15:01) Posted: Then you not Ah Pek yet. In that case you do not qualify for trading tips for the inner circle of the Ah Pek Club members.  At 58 niah you are still considered a Siao Lian Kay. Enjoy your 50s. Before long you will cross the 60-milestone

 

Iran is very sibeh super Ti Kee stubborn to demand unreasonable conditions like they get to control Straits of Hormuz to collect toll
forever, all military action by Israel against Hezbollah must cease and US forces to leave the Gulf and US bases to be shut down.
And there is only one reason why the Iranians are so arrogant - becoz they know Trump is unable to continue the war to send in
ground troops to disarm the IRGC and to capture, kill or force out the Iranian leadership. They know that Trump is in no position to
say to the Iranians - comply with my terms or else. Becoz there is no or else. Trump is unable to carry out his threat as Democrats
are trying to shut down the war. So in a way, this war is lost not becoz Iran has a stronger military than the US but becoz Trump' s
ability to bring the full might of the US military to bear on Iran is curtailed by Congress. What Trump needs to do is to go to Congress
to make out his case. Tell Congress to look at what the Iranians are doing. And explain that the Iranians are behaving so arrogantly
only becoz they think Americans dont have what it takes to finish the job. The Iranians are saying America is bluffing and they are
calling our bluff. Let' s show them what America is capable of. Let' s go into Iran and do what it takes to finish the job. Once Congress
gives its approval to Trump to bomb the shit out of Iran, we will see a change in the tone and behaviour of the Iranians. Becoz Boh
Siang leow. If still play punk with Trump to demand unreasonable conditions, Trump can say " go fug yourself"   and the bombs will
start falling. When a man threatens you but can never carry out his threat, you can call his bluff. But when he can and you dont want
the bombs to fall, you need to back off somewhat and be more willing to make concessions.

Oxford Dictionary will soon have to provide either a new or an alternative meaning to the word - ceasefire.
Becoz both US and Iran have given this word a new meaning.
They take turns to hantam each other.
Drone strike, missile strike and airstrike.
But yet maintain there is a ceasefire.
Or did they mean seize fire ???   
Sorry Bro spore. You own the copyright for " seizefire" . Borrow free use of your copyright.

Here in this thread we are old school.
1 lot means good old 1000 shares.
So 100 lots means an elephant bought 100,000 shares.

Not if the much awaited 10% to 20% drawdown has started.
If tonite Dow drops -800 pts intraday and Nasdaq drops -500 pts intraday and S & P drops -100 pts intraday, then most
likely the correction has started. Then we will see a sea of red on Friday.

Hopefully all turns green afternoon

 

Its unfortunate that we have a string of bad events happening one after another.
First, Optus outage and service disruption issues which impacted SingTel.
Then comes allowing tons of Ah Peks and Ah Mmms to sell SingTel discounted shares.
Followed by sentiments turning from bull to bear with this correction.
A string of unfortuanate events for SingTel fans and diehard shareholders.
The only comfort is the 10.3 cts dividend. Small comfort. But better than dun have. 

sanvan      ( Date: 04-Jun-2026 10:26) Posted: singtel... the selling continues. 4.29 : 4.30. looks like we will see 4.20 soon.  sigh.

 

" The sky is falling."
I think the long awaited correction has started.
Anything from 10% to 20%.
" Even at 10%, it will feel like a bear market" quote unquote Tom Lee.
Brace guys. Brace.
Dont go selling in panic.
If your strategy is to chase stocks on good news and sell on bad news, you will lose money in the long run.
It should be the reverse - buy slowly to accumulate on bad news and sell slowly to take profits on good news
when markets recover. Then you will make money. Having said that, I dont mean buy now. Wait for 10% down
first. Then reassess whether market wants to go to 15%....or 20%.
The silver lining is when this correction ends, it is time to load up.
Becoz quote unquote Tom Lee " we are going to see the best gains in the stock market in 2027" . 
 

 

singtel...
the selling continues.
4.29 : 4.30.
looks like we will see 4.20 soon. 
sigh.

 

gave you a Like Bro Wave for another info nugget on timing top up date

wavehunter      ( Date: 03-Jun-2026 00:10) Posted: Bro koala, Make your decision quickly and then top up your RA by 15th June. Why ar? Top up your RA using electronic payment like Paylah. It takes only 1 or 2 working days for CPF to process your payment. If you pay by cheque, they require at least 7 working days to process your payment. 7 working days is their own self-imposed service standard. If for whatever reason your cheque payment is processed only in early July, then you will lose out one whole month of interest. How it works is your top up does not earn interest in the month you make the top-up. It starts earning interest from the following month. So if you top up in June and your payment is processed in June and reflected in your RA, it will start earning interest in July. If your topping up is made too near to 30 June as a result of which they process your topping up only in July, then your top-up starts earning interest only in August. This is important. Interest lost for one whole month affects your subsequent years' interest becoz interest also earns interest. It is incorrect to think you lose interest for one month only if you procrastinate and do your topping up too near to 30 June. Becoz the interest which you earn for that one month will be credited to your account in Jan 2027 and it will earn more interest for you plus compounded interest for the next few years until you start your payout. Starting point is ask yourself what is the minimum sum you wish to receive as your monthly payout. Then use CPF Life Estimator to work out how much you need to top-up now. If you have the money and you are willing, then do the top-up by 15 June or earlier. If you have the money but you are not willing to use it for the top-up, then you need to lower your expectation to accept a lower monthly payout. Understand that you are building for yourself a safety net. What you want is a stable and more or less " guaranteed" monthly payout which is sufficient to meet your living expenses. Once you have this, you are set for life. Can Bian Huan Loh leow. Whether market is bull or bear or crab (you all did notice that crabs dont walk forward or backward but only sideways, right?), it wont bother you. Becoz market good or market bad or market boring, your payout will swee swee every month come into your bank account for you to La kopi and buy toilet paper and rice etc. Whatever extra cash you still have, you can go play with chickens. If can collect eggs, then BINGO. If teok stuck also no sweat one. Just LOON until win. Becoz you already bought your safety net, ie. CPF Life. You no longer rely on the market to feed you. You no longer are at the mercy of the market for your living expenses. You have done yourself and your family a great favour by exchanging trading uncertainty for CPF Life certainty. No need to crack your head. This is defintely the right thing to do. You wont regret it. Just look at me. Rain or shine, bull or bear, good times or bad times, I will receive $2350 every month. I will get the money as a matter of certainty. Regardless of whether my trading is profitable.
