Millennials. The digital generation that is confident, ambitious, tech-savvy and witty AF! We hate it when the WiFi signal drops by one bar, our phones run out of battery, there’s no button for skip ads or god forbid the screen of a gadget breaks. But you know what’s our worst nightmare? Retirement plans!
We’ve only just started earning and whatever money we make goes into paying for rent, groceries and other essentials (read: online shopping). What is left to save or invest? So when the Twitter hashtag #MillennialRetirementPlans urged us to spill the beans, we did what we do best – gave it the meme treatment!
From family inheritance, selling bitcoins and old toy collections to becoming an influencer, we explored all possible retirement options that were feasible. Take a look.
