Unker Ben: Maybe the Singapore Story should be one where our people go overseas to make their money and then come home to retire.

[cyke69sg]

Yes overall better work life balance.... Jus the other day my ex landlord who came back from queensland was telling me that to see a gp there need to make at least 3 days appt in advance...

Unlike sg can jus walk in same day when u r unwell to see doc.... Worst case scenario gotta go A&E...

They got no coffeeshop or hawkers there... Each meal at restaurant min is AUD$15, price doesn't correspond to quality of food... Sometimes it taste sucky too....

Got time usually ownself cook. Can BBQ. Can smoke tomahawk Wagyu. Grill salmon. Jin ho jiak.
Last time I need to see doctor is like 3 years ago.

 

[cyke69sg]

Yes that means everywhere becomes a dead town after 6pm.. Not as lively and happening as sg...

I prefer peaceful. Quiet. Just went on nice walk by the river. No one till some horse riders came.
Now picnic.

 

[LoaGong12]

I agreed. Sinkie all must go overseas or earn overseas money gao gao then bring back to Singapore enjoy

I am doing business earning USD as much as possible

huh???? where can u earn a lot after paying taxes?
i can only think of some sectors in US cuz apt package much higher

平淡无奇的过一生也是一种幸福。

Poor people are happier because they have less wants, desires, and are happy with what little they have.

Once you have more money, you end up wanting more. Sometimes not because of greed, but because you want to test your limit, and see what you can achieve in your lifetime.

Even if you can maintain your original intention, having more wealth will naturally attract unwanted people who are looking to leech on you or make money off you.

Long explanation of EDMW number one chiobu's favourite statement.

@cosmothecat

I’m poor but not heypi with having nothing

 

[ramlee]

My kids not doing well in Canada.
Life is tough. Singapore is much easier life.

You never send them for tuition?

 

[ramlee]

Most of my peers are making more than $100k a month.

They never intro you lobang?

 

[ramlee]

It’s better to develop overseas for professionals. In sg even a car COE is above 120k, overseas can buy a sports car. Sg will only go on decline in the near future, like Nauru island last time. The golden age of sg won’t last due to geopolitics shift happening now. These no saving period of sg

We should have faith in the capable leedership of pap

 

[ramlee]

Everywhere is the same. But Singapore is doing better. Why? It means a lot of good money is going to Singapore.
Singapore is getting richer and richer. And this benefits the whole country. The SGD is getting stronger and stronger every year.

Investing in SGD is very good. Safe haven,

And this ish due to the capable pap

 

[cyke69sg]

huh???? where can u earn a lot after paying taxes?

What is a lot?

500k a year after tax?

 

[cyke69sg]

You never send them for tuition?

No. Never send.
Go for gymnastics. Ski.

 

[cyke69sg]

They never intro you lobang?

I left Singapore. Had to create my own new lobangs from scratch. End up is do stuff busan busi.

 

[cyke69sg]

And this ish due to the capable pap

PAP ish the best

 

[ramlee]

The young Singaporeans don't need to work anymore.
Their parents have invested well. They will live off passive income and rental incomes.

I can’t say the same for my parents

 

[ramlee]

Age 50 and above they can still do well as they can downgrade from million dollar hdb so can retire well
Age 30 to 50 will suffer unless they can get inheritance soon to support their retirement due to lousy low pay jobs and upcoming retrenchment or failing business
Age 30 and below, they can eat grass due to high competition from foreigners and poor quality jobs remaining for locals unless they willing to work highly technical or manual jobs

Age 30 and below will be hokay because their fresh grad start pay is $6-7k plus inheritance from their parents ish cannot eat finish

 

[ramlee]

For now yes, but 20 years down the road, things can get very different. We can’t except other countries out there to be sleeping while sg progress

We will progress even more if we are steel under the capable leedsrship of pap

 

[Capitalist]

Singapore’s where one can try to make one’s pot of gold, and then seek to retire elsewhere.

 

[ramlee]

Like I said, if you don't have old monies, you are death.

You have any to give your chewren?

 

[cyke69sg]

I can’t say the same for my parents

I want to be a parent that you can say the same in helping children retire and not have my kids say I never helped them.

 

[itedino]

Which other country welcomes foreigners as much as Singapore?

Which other country can earn gao gao so that one can come back here and retire song song?

Bird talk leh!

Thailand welcome with open leg policy

 

[itedino]

if u already got 30millions or more, then why do u bother or want to come back to Singapore? Many are wanting to get out and u are outside wanting to come back? makes no sense.

Right If I got 30m. I will move to Vietnam
