I guess he just wants to enjoy life (even if it means doing nothing in SG) while he can while I prefer the dynamism and colleagues my workplace provide. I don’t want to see him everyday too cos we are too different in personality and our opinions differ a lot as well.

I as a working woman don't see why I have to stop working when DH decides to retire. It is his decision whether he wants to continue working or go retirement to enjoy life. I cannot force him to continue working. Same for me, I should have the right to choose to continue working and earn more money or go retirement.

For your case, if he wants to enjoy life and take care of the 3 princess at home is fine but you should be able to continue staying in your job and enjoy working with your colleagues.

AT1 is a high risk bon somemore its perpetual which means there is no guarantee principal will be paid at which juncture since there is no maturity. Also with AT1, mandatory capital triggers may kick in upon certain events which may place bond holders in an Unfavourable situation, Read the TnC carefully.

Yes, previously the Credit Sussie one is also an AT1 bond. But UBS is already the last major bank left in Switzerland so should be fine?

So you need to see if 5.85 is worth the risk lo.

have u consider counselling job before?

No! Don't have the patience, and don't like face-to-face that much. A friend of mine did a counselling MA a few years ago - quite a lot of ladies do that in their 40s-50s.

See who is the issuer of the bonds not who are the distributors of the products. There is a reason why it is called AT1. It’s definitely more risky than your plain vanilla bonds. And in this kind of interest rate environment bond prices are volatile as well.
