Did you know that according to the Employee Provident Fund (EPF), only 4% of Malaysians can actually afford to retire?
You’ve probably heard about retirement on the news or from your family. But it’s not just a far-off idea; it’s how you can achieve financial freedom. With inflation soaring and the cost of living on the rise, experts now say you should aim for at least RM1 million to retire comfortably. Sounds like a lot, right? Don’t worry; we’ve got your back!
