just like casinos. are those con places?
casinos are actually leisure places but unfortunately most pple succumb to habitual gambling.
just like our cpfs, would we stand a chance to get back every cents plus interests? at what age?
i never thought of getting back my cpf, i am leaving it behind for my family. Probably, some others have their own thoughts in how they want their cpf be managed. cpf is critical for the country to make money for domestic and fend off any hostile financial battle that threaten our country. but again unfortunately, our GIC squandered it away mostly. i am quite skeptical if they really made although it was published in papers that they made good returns.
the magic of the entire affair is manipulators in share markets lure unwary investors promising them "rewards". didn't cpf last time also approve of using our saving to invest in "trustee" stocks? look what happen to most trustee stocks. many have become THRUSTEE stocks which worth not even a fraction of their original value.
yes, you remind me of chartered semicon using cpf to buy their shares,they also used to pay their staff up to 9 months bonuses in their hey days. even my cousin, a senior manager in his 40's got affected and never able to find a job since for few years already.
does our gov own up to such whammy by the way?
nah, our gov. always give pple false hope instead of instilling positivity in their thinking.
