A 67-year-old retiree holds a record of sorts that most of us would yearn for - she has more than $1.2 million in her Ordinary Account (OA) of the Central Provident Fund (CPF).
If that's not impressive enough, she has another $400,000 in her Retirement Account and over $50,000 in her MediSave account.
