CPF Board has recently released more details on the CPF LIFE Scheme. The CPF Life Payout Estimator and Information Booklet can be found on their website here – CPF LIFE Website. I’ve done some comparison between the CPF LIFE vs Commercial Annuity already, I’ll do some simple comparison between payouts under the new CPF LIFE vs Minimum Sum Scheme (MMS).
The Minimum Sum Scheme
Depending on your birthday, the corresponding Minimum Sum (MS) will be different for different ages. This MS would provide a monthly payout that would last approximately 20 years. The prevailing Minimum Sum (MS) is $117,000.
The Draw Down Age (DDA), ie when you can start receiving the payout, is different for different ages.
