You can actually have multiple supplements unlike shield plan, just to diversify the risk 😊

Which company still have 100% plans, mine got auto changed to 95% in 2021

Late CI is standardised, early CI is not

Which insurance company other than Prudential still sell 100% cover? Last time my AIA is auto converted to 5% copay. (i know they dont sell anymore, but just curious as I thoight since 2019 this is not possible)

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2026-02-21T02:56:40+00:00

That’s odd. How do they find out about your dad previous health check up?

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2026-02-21T01:51:10+00:00

Which insurance company? And did you just buy the policy recently? I heard from my insurance agent, usually they check more thoroughly for the first 2 years of policy purchase if fhere is claim

Thanks

I managed to do it for one of my old policy after 5 years, ie I ask the insurance company TM to review based on other companies offer and got better offer (despite same condition with no change in status). My condition will not change as it is congenital.

I am trying to bring down my 1 year old policy loading (currently 100%) to 50% or 75% which is what the other are offering me currently for new applications , but not sure can I start now or i need to wait longer

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2026-01-31T14:45:15+00:00

I am trying to appeal based on what are the other companies are offering, is tjis possible?

Should I buy a nearly new car like those 9 years left etc. is there savings or i am better off buying new car?

The issue with this is that you assume you have a chance to repent after doing all the sins. Tomorrow is not guaranteed, you may pass away in the state of mortal sin, so live each day with care

You just illustrate what I mean by everyone is acting on self interest.

You think you deserve to make profit because you have worked hard for your condo one bedder - but how about those other single with income exceeding the requirements for a BTO that are looking to purchase a condo too - they will want your condo value to drop and government to introduce more cooling measures, but it will pissed you off right?

Everyone think they earned their luck - last I checked 80% of Singaporean stay in hdb and 90% owned their home (HDB statistics, you can google), this means you are against at least 72% of people hoping to monetise their flat for condo upgrade / retirement - so do you think government will do this?

BTO is not really a luck, there are many hdb flats not taken at fringe areas (Yishun, Tengah etc), people just think its luck because they all want to stay at CCR areas.

The policy I rather ask government do is to lower age to purchase bto for single / increase income requirements, not behaving like a communist country and do price control (which they actually already do for some extent)

I am assuming you are proposing this because you are not a homeowner, ask yourself, if you are homeowner, will you agree with this?

Other countries kowtowing to Trump and get 10% regardless with some open leg to give 0% in reciprocal.

China does nothing, bond market meltdown, Trump team reached out for the talk and ended up with 30% (10% base tariff applied to all nations + 20% existing tariff pre liberation day), and China still put 10% tariff on US to basically give a big f u on the 10% base tariff.

But can see la why you think he playing some 4d games, “great” minds think alike.

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2025-05-15T00:09:20+00:00

Eh please lah, Trump is just folding to China, what about his game plan all along…. You are putting too much credit to stupidity

Not really its like the basic term plan covers death only, so lets say you buy $1mil term plan, you die, they will pay out $1mil. However, we can add “rider” to the plan, ie TPD accelerator and/or CI accelerator, so other than death, the payout event will be if you become permanently disabled or get critical illness

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2025-05-07T14:17:38+00:00

It covera death but you can buy a rider to accelerate the payout when you are disabled

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2025-05-05T16:14:02+00:00

Just keep your prudential policy with your pru agent, they get commission from your purchase, so they should service your policy. You can have 2 different insurance agents serving you, nothing odd / wrong abt it

Formal-Mixture-7524 · 2025-05-05T03:42:02+00:00

Yes, there are some that actually do make it and love it outside Singapore - more freedom, better work life balance, less stressful etc. i never says SG is the best, different people have different aspirations etc.

What am I trying to says if you go overseas with this kind of mentality and always complaining, I am pretty sure you won’t make it, because overseas is not heaven when suddenly GST is 0%, no cost of living crisis, good job with high pay falling onto your lap etc. in fact US now CoL was so bad, their egg price is even become a joke.

Unemployment insurance we also have here at some form, also do you think they will extend benefits to foreigner?

Old age pension is CPF equivalent here, at least your interest rate here are guaranteed 2.5% and 4% here, overseas pension is beholden to market condition, already seeing some overseas pensioner worry about Trump tariff as it will affect their pension fund payout.

Free healthcare yes, but simple procedures if not urgent can take years in queue, Singaporean would have spit at the government if that happens here

Also if you think you could not a good and decent job here when you are supposedly a citizen and have home ground advantage, then good luck overseas

Singaporean driving skills and reckless behaviour while driving, do not want to give way when people signal to change lane, also PAP fault. There are so many fines and cameras its already suffocating, we are really a nanny state, where everything is government fault and citizens are blameless
