Good health considered more easily within reach than wealth
Close to two-thirds of the Singaporeans surveyed also said that achieving good health is easier than wealth (63 per cent). They view health as more controllable through personal actions like diet and exercise, while wealth depends on external factors such as the economy and job market (76 per cent).
Meanwhile, those who think achieving wealth is easier are tempted by the promise of quick returns (53 per cent) and the belief that it takes less effort (51 per cent).
Mr Jeff Ang, CEO of Prudential Financial Advisers Singapore*, said: "We want to raise awareness that it is just as important to have a lifelong fitness plan as it is to have a long-term financial plan. Our ability to fund our retirement and future medical needs are very much tied to the actions we take today to achieve health and financial stability. It takes effort but it's worth it in the long run. Start planning early, engage professional advice for your medical coverage and financial needs, and spend time on self-care. That way, you can enjoy a fulfilling life with good health and sufficient funds to smell the roses."
Most Singaporeans can agree it is not a binary choice between health and wealth. Some 77 per cent of respondents believe they can achieve both if they have a structured plan in place (61 per cent), and that success in one area will lead to victory in the other (56 per cent).
