As others said, the on the "high pay", do look at their tax rate. If you are normal median salary, maybe still OK. I would probably need to pay nearly 50% tax rate kind whereas in SG after reliefs, etc, low teens to single digit % tax rate only.

There's always a flip side to things. Others look at SG, song song.. We look at them also want that kind.

One thing for sure, look at where alot of people wanna migrate to, and you know where the real deal is.
Most people want to migrate to SG these days.

They also don't go out to eat frequently. Unlike Sinkies, where they can happy happy go eat Chicken Rice, eat Japanese for lunch in CBD, and then at night go drink $26 cocktail without blinking.

SGreans are very rich compared to Ang moh.

Ang moh buy things on debt. Credit card. Even go holiday is take loan.

Debt free here means no credit card debt no car loan no personal line of credit balance. Mortgage not counted as debt.

In SG SGreans can don't have mortgage also! Then is debt free.

to attain work life balance, productivity has to increase. hopefully with ai and robotics, there will be an abundance of supply so we dont need to work so hard. :frown:
Don’t need to work so hard means no Jod. Then where got marnee to eat? :(

Because they are designed to be able to afford goods. Therefore they are the key markets for third country goods.

when you see people buy car $30k also need to take loan at 6% type , you know already.

even houses , $300k to $400k take a 30 year loan at 6% .. wth ? joke or what ?

some people really mountain tortoise. never work or stay there long enough and meet enough of Europeans , Americans , Australians then open their mouths talk as if they damm smart..

such people ought to get whacked .. really crap.

easiest is see their houses and cars.
real rich stay nice houses with huge land . things are nice. cars they drive are nice.

the rest , wooden homes , shitty dangerous ghettos , cheap 20 year old vehicles ..
