I am worried about my kids. What would be their future if our financial situation is getting worse almost every year.

What we can do:
1) take care of our retirement needs so as not to burden our children
2) equip our children with skills and knowledge so that they can be indept
3)

I like that age 40-60 will be getting $1000 worth of Skills Future credits.


I didn’t manage to use mine before they expired previously. Problem was that majority of the courses didn’t cater to SAHM timings. Only evenings or weekends full day. Maybe this time round I can go since kid is older now and can stay at home alone.

Did any of you go for Skills Future courses using your credits? Please share any interesting ones!

is there an expiry to SFC? My impression is that it is there indefinitely. If it is expired or has expired, I think the min the Govt would do is to send reminder to the citizens right? I did not receive such letters.

I hv yet to use my skill future credits too

My mistake. I just checked. The expiry was a scam going around. Govt body came out to say that there’s no expiry date:
