CPF – Coffin money kena tangkap

 
This is the most cruel thing to do to anyone. The coffin money is what a person has left for his last journey, to have a decent burial. When one accuses another of robbing his coffin money, it is a very mean and heartless thing to do. Some called it ‘or sim kua’ or 黑心肝.



Going back in time, anyone remember what was the purpose of CPF savings? Yes, it was a simple saving scheme for old age, for retirement, a kind of coffin money. Over time, when the savings got too big, someone decided that housing was also very important, having a roof over one’s head was a basic need. So some CPF money was allowed for the people to buy a home. $7k or $10k, quite affordable and would not erode the savings. Still a lot of money left for retirement and to buy a coffin. Then HDB prices gone up, $30k, $50k, now $300k, $500k, $1m, and still some donkeys said very affordable. But after paying for a home, what is left in the CPF for retirement and for a coffin? Hardly any, barely any left. Don’t talk about the hare brain scheme of allowing 90% of CPF money to play the stock market. That is another pathetic and heartbroking episode to many oldies.

Now, did anyone put their savings into their CPF to buy medical insurance? What is that? Never heard of! The CPF is about retirement and coffin money. Who wants to save to buy insurance with their retirement and coffin money?

How much of your CPF money has been ‘tangkap’ and set aside for medical and insurance? When has the CPF been turned into a medical insurance scheme against the wishes of the people? Do the people, the savers, have a say in their money? Why is the money now gone, to pay for insurance, to pay for medical insurance whether you need it or not?

What happens to the main objectives of retirement savings, of coffin money? Where is my money for retirement? Not enough, why not enough for retirement? Who has been robbing me of my CPF savings? After saving a life time, at more than 50% of one’s income, still not enough for retirement, not enough for coffin money?

Who has been so cruel to dip into the people’s coffin money?

Stop dreaming about this so call imaginative saving.Cpf is for the purpose of ensuring you all dun otarng hospital bill before you kick the bucket.
Who pay cpf?Did you all have a giro account to deduct from your saving account monthly?Or you all pay cash?
No right?It's our kind employer who help us to pay this tax.It is for the purpose of allowing one to have some money,we call it Qiu Buay Lui, to pay hospital bills and balance for a coffin and funeral expenses.What
Garmen should do now is to start a organisation that provide free coffin and Sai Kong and those without children to make a grand funeral,to have many free part time HaoTse,to make a grand funeral.
Cheongkong all cpf and
use it as insurance premium
to ensure no one otarng money.Think.they are listening to.My proposal.Hosayliao.
Where's my sifu?

'From next week (7 Oct) onwards, Singaporeans who have lived overseas for more than 5 years will be able to apply for their Medishield Life premiums to be suspended.

Unsurprisingly, such a suspension seems to have some conditions attached to it.

Firstly, these Singaporeans will need to prove that they are able to afford Health insurance while overseas. Next, they will have to pay additional premiums – with accrued interest – when they return.'

Some daft sinkies thought there was a change. Come on stupid, it is only a suspension if you applied for it. But on your return you continue to pay what was suspended plus your current dues. They don't care if you are paying medical insurance in your country overseas while you are there. All they are interested is to take money from you.

Why would a govt be so desperate to want to take money from you at all cost? Is it that there is a very big hole that needs to be filled?

Singaporeans, think, what is happening to your money, to your savings, why are they disappearing as fast as you put into your CPF savings? It is like a bottomless pit.

If you complain and more people complain too much about not enough money for buying s coffin, rest assured the PAP Paramentarians will very well come out with another scheme called 'CPF coffin scheme' where they will force everyone to leave a certain percentage more each month for buying a coffin. The money will be left with them of course, until you kick the bucket.

Be very careful of what you wish for in Sin City. Then you may have one more nail in the CPF coffin!

With more than 2m CPB contributors, assuming each got to pay $500 pa to the MedishieldLife, that would be a cool $1b siphoned away from the CPF. And this does not include the premiums for the children and babies.

Every year, more than $1 billion removed from the CPF accounts for this insurance scheme that the CPF savers did not ask for, did not intend for.

Can anyone find out how much money they made from the 'Eldershield Scheme' after all these years? Understand that very few managed to succeed in their claims. Many of my old relatives who died were able to meet the conditions for claiming. Those who succeed were those who are almost one leg inside the coffin, and may be able to claim for a month or two only.

I guess Medishield Life will be another scheme that will fatten the coffers of the Insurers.

The moral of the story is that every scheme they thought of is extremely profitable for them to implement. If not, they will not touch it with a long pole for sure, but so-called 'privatised' it (but still under their control and whims and fancies to dictate).

Government cannot let people pass on their wealth and society cannot have savings. This is economics. They need to squeeze every single cent out of us.

Someone's debt is others asset. In essence CPF is PAP debt and people are creditor. PAP will think of how to default.

The only people allow to pass on wealth will be elites. But ultimately this system will implode. When elites keep accumulating until they have 100% while people have 0%, that is where revolution sets up.

I guess in Singapore 1% elites may own 90%, the rest of the people 10%. We are not far from there.

CPF coffin money kena tangkap or not, HDB prices affordable or not, but 70% still voted for the PAP which make all this happened.

So complain for what? Sinkies deserve the govt they voted for, and too bad for those money no enough Sinkies.

I only managed to have $11,000 in my CPF Medisave Account. There is nothing left in my Other CPF accounts. I was hoping that this $11,000 could earn a bit of interests and grow slightly every year. But now those cunning and slimy scholar brains (who used taxpayers money to get their education and got where they are) instead of using their brains to help us, they are using their brains to suck every single drop of blood from us. They cunningly device a scheming scheme to deplete all my $11,000 in less than 10 years with a $1200 premium per year to pay for my FORCED-DOWN-MY-THROAT MEAN-AND-CRUEL Medical Insurance.

I am one of the Real Pioneers who helped build up Singapore in the early days, I was part of the Computerisation Team to kick start the education and use of computers in all the various Ministries and Statutory Boards, and also one of the Pioneers who help to kick-start the FAIRPRICE of NTUC. I was also part of the 1st Batch of National Service. You see, how cruel these blood-suckers, disciples of the Chief Blood-Sucking Dracula, have been and still are!
They can't even give me free medical benefits but the Present Young-Punk Ministers and MPs are enjoying free medical at A Class Wards!?

PAP will be voted out first long before a revolution sets up.

But since PAP can even get 70% votes only last year, revolution tan ku ku (wait long long) lah.

Hungary voted 92.3% against immigrants in a referendum yesterday. I have never seen a democratically voted % to be so high, though it was 42% of the voting population interested to go to polling stations. I guess those stay in farms will not see immigrants, correct? Go to pulau tekong see if you see a neh migrants there. In town you see them with laptops, in changi canteen you see the entire canteen are ah neh pmets.

Why CPF has immigrants involved? Read this my friends. I used the figures published by msm. Buy a $350000 flat. Hey this is no grant flat 3 room near town. 1 flat at kallang cost close $700000, 3 room flat only.

A humble location and humble flat costing $350000. How much CPF is needed? Initially $36200 deducted at application.
Over 25 years $429000 will be deducted.
So CPF will be kosong after deducting: $465,200.

Young men think they can give chance for Pap to issue E pass and S pass for ah neh to replace them on jobs like managers, accountants, teacher, lecturer, engineers, etc will be waiting to have NO coffin money, as RB stated in po.

Earning $3000-5000pm can hardly accumulate CPF $500000 over 25 years, with Pap kind of immigrants first for jobs policy. No joke. Most young men will die belly up at old age with this kind of salary stagnant since 25 years ago under the present pm.

$500000 CPF is not enough lah. The minimum sum will be set in at 55. CPF must have $500000+300000 or $800000, as Pap will raise the minimum sum. They cannot pay back the money liao. Remember to see the figure of Singapore external debt: USD1.76 Trillions. By next 25 years, the debt will probably bankrupt Singapore s AAA status, if voters still vote for the big spenders Pap.
$800000 cpf does not include the medical insurance fee RB talked about.
Singaporeans are in for trouble for voting the wrong politicians who knows spending and dont know creating good jobs for citizens.
At the end conclusion: at old age, citizens need good jobs badly to keep the CPF going and old age lives alive.
For that, old men want jobs? Pap will let in ah neh to kick them to coffin faster. Trouble is half dead. How to die faster when poor will be hot topic in future.

In Mathematics, assuming you pass your wealth to your son and every generation increase the wealth by 100%. By the 10th generation your son will have 1 billion if you started with 1 million.

There is a need for such inheritance to be destroyed, by plunder or stealing, by the elites. The elites of course can pass on wealth and accumulate more.

The mathematical model against dynastic wealth is what that justify an estate tax, which was abolish by PAP. The estate tax allow some form of reset, which will not only help the poor, but save the rich from being genocided.

Tiok. Singaporeans in trouble does not mean PAP is also in trouble. They are 2 separate matters.

If PAP is not in trouble, PAP can continue to make trouble for Singaporeans.

So Singaporeans deserve the trouble PAP make for them.

The natural evolution of capitalism is Hinduism or Islam. Marx is wrong, it wont be socialism.
Right now Singaporeans KPKB about CPF because we are not Muslims and we are not dalits. Muslims will be ecstastic when their sheikh took their women and fuck, squander their wealth, educate them into a moron.

That is why there is a concerted effort in the west to promote Islam. Muslims can kill the white man but if white man shown anger, they be thrown into prison for being racist.

Hinduism works similar. The rich and loot monies and loot sexually. Hindu will think when they endure, they get good karma.

If PAP reset our CPF to zero, Muslims will be happy just like Malay support 1MDB Najib. Hindu will think they get good karma again.

The only thing that stand up against the elites are socialism now fusing with Chinese civilization.

Got 70% meh? Why by election was 61%? Not 70%.
My guess is: now 55% support only.

1 Pap supporter used to teach me "be good neighbor, some noise is ok one" "these hawker centers no singaporeans want to do, they will be taken over by foreigners" " jobs for fresh grad $5000pm still singaporeans dont want to do, so govt gave them to foreigners" Ha ha, all the officials said this, he remembered to tell me.

Now he hardly said this to me liao. He bought a condo, may be following the old man s prediction that voting for Pap, property prices would go up. U can guess why he never smiled again.

There are many Pap supporters failed to make money by speculating on properties following the rosy picture put up by the old man. U expect Pap to get 70%? May be u need to find another old man to have a grand state funeral. The last one was not so grand right? So 70% cannot achieve lah.

Gov everywhere is the same. They all think that the people money is their money. They will think of all ways to transfer people money into their pockets thru subsidies, subcontracting, outsourcing etc. They will tell the people that people live longer when only 5% of adults will live till 90. They will tell the people that they need to pay more for this and that when all mess are created by them. Gov is the problem. They are the enemy of the people.

A young couple is already in debt of almost $1,000,000 for 25 years the moment they start a family.

$350,000 - 4 room HDB
$322,000 - Minimum Sum
$130,000 - Medishield premium
=======================
$802,000 - Total (estimate)

If the mean household income is $5,000/month, this debt is $2,673 is more than 50%!.

Good news is it is centrally collected and paid out via CPF, you dont' have to run to 3 or more financial instutions!

At first people cry mother and father that they can manage their own money better, they dont want CPF -- so the govt allowed them to invest in equities. They lost money and cry mother and father that the govt should not have let them use the money. The govt then allows them to buy HDB flats, so when they dont have enought money left after buying the flats they cry mother and father. Simple maths --- you want more cash left in your CPF, you buy a smaller flat. Period. Stop the whining. In case you are wondering -- I dont own a house and my retirement fund is very little -- BUT I'm not whining. It's my own bloody fault that I was unable to save more, because in my active years, I spent my money of other stuff instead of saving them.
