We're drowning in financial data yet starving for retirement confidence. Only 28 per cent of Singaporeans feel truly on track — and as the nation hurtles toward super-aged status, the margin for error is gone. Howie Lim sits down with Samuel Rhee, co-founder and group CIO of Endowus to dissect why sitting in cash is the riskiest bet you can make, why "starting with why" beats chasing the perfect investment, and the three metrics that actually matter.

Synopsis: Every Monday, The Business Times breaks down useful financial tips.

Highlights:

01:23 Capital shortage meets analysis paralysis

03:22 When informed becomes over-informed

08:18 Cash - the riskiest asset you own

13:44 Three metrics that cut through the noise
