Will your KWSP savings be enough when you reach 55 years old? Will it be enough to sustain your retirement days?

According to research, retirees would need at least RM120'000 in KWSP savings to finance the retirement for the next 20 years. In simple calculation, for the next 20 years after retirement, one's monthly salary will be RM500. But ask yourself.. will RM500 per month be enough?

Impact Of Inflation

The chart above is a clear reason why we need to multiply our savings. 3 meals a day would cost you RM20 today, but 20 years later the same 3 meals a day would probably costs about RM60!!

Ask your self again.. will RM500 per month be enough?

Average yearly dividend generated from KWSP is 5%. Yearly dividend of 5% is good, but it is not enough. Because every year, our inflation rate keeps going higher! Malaysia inflation rate recorded 5.4% in 2009! We need to 'CHARGE-UP' our KWSP savings so that it will generate more than 10% dividend a year! Can it be done?! The answer is YES IT CAN BE DONE! You will soon find out how to do it.

Now look at the chart below. In which group do you want to be when you retire at age 55?

So you wish to be in the 1/3 of the top of the chart? Or 1/3 of the bottom and beyond? After exploring the facts above, we clearly do need to 'CHARGE-UP' our KWSP savings and let it work harder for us. Give our savings a chance to 'snow-ball' and become a BIGGER 'ball' every year.

So how do we do it? Dividends in KWSP alone is 5% a year. How can we save our money so that dividends we received are more that 10% a year without working two or three jobs at the same time? The answers will be revealed..
