A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As they dedicate their love and lives to their households and make constant sacrifices for their family’s & children’s well-being, mothers never retire. For all these, moms deserve more thoughts besides during Mother’s Day. But should mothers also think about planning their own retirement — financially speaking? In this issue, as we give tributes to all mothers, we would also like to give thoughts to a mother’s financial freedom. Mothers deserve a worry-free retirement as well.

4 Things Mothers in Singapore Should Do to Plan for Their Finances

A 2015 survey showed that 75% of Singaporean mothers surveyed had not even thought about retirement, let alone started planning for it. If you’re spending all your energy running after the kids or making sure they pay attention during tuition, here four things you should not forget to do for your finances.

Mums, pay attention to finances

Financial experts advise that it makes sense for mothers (and just about anyone) to pay attention to their financial affairs.
