Good Retirement Planning
The shape of the graph above is a tad bit depressing as it seems you may outlive your retirement fund. There is a better way to plan.
A good retirement planning will give you a more inspiring chart like the one below. You can be sure the retirement fund will beat inflation, outlive you and leave something for your children.

This graph trend is possible when your fund gives you good returns and its value increases over the years. This is possible if you invest wisely in property and dividend stocks. These are the assets that will beat inflation and provide incomes, i.e. rental & dividend, without depleting its own value.
I added a variable, annual "Asset appreciation" rate of the fund. This is an ANNUAL rate. The annual rate for assets in cash or fixed deposit is zero. The annual rate for landed property is around 5% - 8%.
