ANNUITY DAY
Event Information
Description
GET CLARITY ON HOW TO SOLVE YOUR RETIREMENT PROBLEM AND LEARN HOW TO CUSTOMISE YOUR RETIREMENT INCOME USING ANNUITY
ABOUT:
This is a 2.5 hours program designed to help you understand where annuity fits in when it comes to personal retirement planning. Retirement is all about income and the success in retirement is about ensuring you will never run out of money – no matter how long you live.
Annuity is designed to do exactly this – providing an income that is certain and predictable to remove longevity risk.
Done correctly, annuity planning provides the foundation and peace of mind for all other personal and financial objectives in retirement.
Done incorrectly or worse, retiring without any annuity may leave you stuck with a perpetual “withdrawal dilemma” (and the accompanying worries and confusion) to decide between what is the right amount to spend and what is the right amount to save.
AFTER ATTENDING THIS PROGRAM, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO:
- Get clarity on which phase of retirement will annuity fit in
- Learn how to choose the right type of annuity for your own unique retirement needs
- Create a customised annuity portfolio from the many types of annuity available
GETTING STARTED WITH A RETIREMENT READINESS ANALYSIS
In addition, the program includes an additional follow-up service – an income and expense analysis planning exercise that projects your retirement cashflow. This analysis will allow you to learn if you are likely to run out of money in retirement and if you are, when will it happen.

1. Crossing the Retirement Bridge
2. Understanding Longevity Risk and Longevity Risk Aversion
3. The 3 Phases of Retirement
4. Understanding Annuity for Retirement
- What is an annuity?
- What are the types of annuity?

ABOUT YOUR SPEAKER, MR LEE MENG CHOE:
Meng Choe specialises in retirement planning for people in the pre-retirement phase which he defines as within 10 years from retirement.
He started as a financial planner in 2001 and is a Chartered Financial Practitioner (FChFP). You can learn more about him here.
Read his personal message about why he decided to build this program:
“I often get enquiries about annuity and retirement planning from the articles I wrote. A common thread amongst the people that I meet is that while they are aware of the need to plan, they feel that there is so much to learn before they can get to the stage of being confident to even start the planning process.
It is not uncommon for me to take a few meetings, emails and many text messages to educate someone to the point where they have enough clarity to think about how their retirement will be like. Unlike the process of buying a single financial product, people instinctively know that a mistake in annuity and retirement planning can be costly and even irrevocable.
This is why I decided to build a program where I can cover as much of what someone should know before they start putting together a concrete plan for retirement. Essentially, compressing the many meetings, emails and text messages into a program to cover the “salient and the FAQs” when it comes to annuity and retirement. The idea is a bit like a marriage preparation course for couples before they get married or antenatal course for young parents before the baby arrives. The only difference is that this is a preparation program for another phase of life.
My hope is that the program can help people make better decisions for their retirement, avoid some of the costly mistakes others have made and save me some late night emails and text messages!”
