Saturday Mornings: Retire by 50? Gen Z Thinks So—But Are They Ready?

💰As Singapore marks 60 years of independence, Prudential Singapore’s "SG60 Financial Future Poll" reveals surprising generational shifts in retirement confidence and planning. “Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen welcomes Lim Yuting, Head of Distribution at Prudential Financial Advisers Singapore, to discuss the findings and what they mean for Singapore’s financial future. While half of Gen Zs believe they’ll retire well, 72% haven’t started planning—preferring to focus on income growth and flexible lifestyles like remote work and “micro-retirements.” Meanwhile, Baby Boomers reflect on missed opportunities, wishing they’d begun financial planning 12 years earlier. We explore key concerns across age groups—from rising living costs to healthcare—and the evolving mix of retirement income sources, including CPF, savings, ETFs, and ILPs. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
