Interesting topic. Lots of interesting datat compiled by the YouTuber.
Most interesting piece of study is how wealth is transfered from one generation to another. UBS found by the time rich families reach the 3rd Generation, 90% of families lose the wealth accumulated by the first generation that build the wealth. The grand son end up at same level as grandfather before he became wealthy. The Chinese have a saying for this but researchers found it to be true studying many families.
I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

I guess those elderly should be under the CPF RSS scheme (b4 CPFLife was implemented).
For this group, it will be much better to transfer their maturing banks FDs into their CPF RA account to get the 4% interest.
The RA can be top up to around $210K+.

That is a very high interest rate CPF is paying, at 4% no banks can beat this interest rate..
