Not saying idk nothing is free. But sg living really getting more unbearable lehhh.

And to be fair I know all the first world city has the same problem.

How come so many young people can still be so yolo, happy and carefree?

Everything needs money man. In before i behkan that why hei hei chuan.

From little to big things everything literally needs money. Eat 1 meal want find cheap option also hard. Public transport also keep upz fare though is already the cheapest options.

How to retire like that? How come people my age around me can keep spend money one? While everyday I'm stressing 101 things. And everything is money involved.

Wake up I'm immediately stressed about life. Everyday calculating how to make more money and cut down expenses. Thinking how to invest properly. How to build enough emergency funds, to if my insurance coverage is enough. And all the endless bills. And everything at home also need money. 1 thing spoil need pay to fix. Neighbor from hell do something then need immediately come up with plan B to counter. To looking for next place to move etc.

Is it they got parents support or I'm just tanking too many things alone and too suay? I see ig everyday can eat good food, or do something. Really so much money meh? Even though they are advancing next stage of life on and on also like a breeze one.

I see pregnant mummy everyday party and I'm like huh won't stress about later upcoming all the expenses meh?

I see mothers with kids still can keep go cafe hoping, house, kids all free meh?

I see singles buy 1 bag after another.

I'm really overwhelmed by life man...I can safely say I can feel how a solo breadwinner feels. 我真的很累。我的肩膀真的快扛不起。

Just take one step at a time. First make ur health n wellbeing ok.
savings can grow once one thg after another stabilised. If u healthy .. can work it’s no issue. If keep worrying abt growing savings .. haven’t resolve air quality how to feel well ?

when my a kong came he got boat fees and nothing.

when my pa married my mom , he got nothing also. Everything is borrow loan from boss or hdb or his sibling. He n my mom also lived hand to mouth for as long as until I was 10 y old. Then she needed to go work cos can’t mk ends meet.

You r educated , already better than my pa who only p5 literacy level. He didn’t worry n just work day to day. Job also paid every week cos blue collar work.

Some people no need to support family. Some people got parents support. Some people inherited something since born. Some people seems to have it easy but are actually in snowballing debt.

Do your best. At your own pace. Set a target but don’t be too hard up for it. And don’t emo too much.
