🇲🇾 Malaysia: Survival Probability to Age (2024 Estimates)

Age Males (Survival %) Females (Survival %) Gender Gap (Female Advantage)
55 ≈ 94.7% ≈ 97.3% ≈ 2.6 percentage points
65 ≈ 80.2% ≈ 88.4% ≈ 8.2 percentage points
75 ≈ 59.4% ≈ 72.6% ≈ 13.2 percentage points
85 ≈ 28.2% ≈ 40.3% ≈ 12.1 percentage points

Why not retire at 35?

Str budi

Yeah. Summore current strawberry gen attitude. Boss won't dare to simply firing.

Cool point about stress and financial freedom; that one I agree with.
But the numbers you quoted don’t really match real-world data.

Look at Japan: people there retire around 65–67, some even work into their 70s…
and they still live the longest in the world. Around 84–85 years.
If retiring late was really ‘killing people,’ Japan should be in trouble, but nope.

Same in Scandinavia:
• Norway retires at ~67, life expectancy ~83
• Sweden ~65–67, life expectancy ~83
• Denmark ~66–67, life expectancy ~81

All high retirement ages, all long lifespans.

So honestly, it’s not about retiring late or early.
It’s lifestyle, health, work culture, and how stressed you are.

No problem promoting early financial freedom. Just use proper stats so people don’t get confused.

once you are >55, you can yolo at office.

I think most folks cannot afford to retire at 55 anymore

Then continue live till 120 yo! Eat sleep shit repeat!

Sure, if you is miskin and your kids are charsiew.

It's happening right now in Singapore.

It will happen to you as well.

depending on your health also.. if u already have high blood pressure or diabetes or something else, better just retire by 55. rest more.

Better not to be born. LoL

whole life no work how?

Measure ground

Poorfags do poorfags way of retirement.

The problem with ppl is they always wrongly set their benchmark based on others standard.

Before retirement also try to match car with others, in the end failed to save money for retirement then blame low salary. We all know private car is essential in Msia, but many buy beyond basic car.

Japan many hikikomori, some adults still living off parents (PRC also got this). The assumption that they all very hardworking may not apply for increasing Japanese, Koreans and PRC of current gen.

influencer guru later will post another post about the breakthrough NMN pills, work and extend life .

So retire later...then can die earlier...then suffer lesser...

year 55 ideal, but with 55 the balance of epf if can work another 5 years the last remaining 5 years until 60 compound interest can be big. Then 60 y.o ciao je

If one has sufficient funds, retiring at 55 is perfect.
Not a day more.
