If the marrying process turns you off so much. you will be up for a shock after married, and probably won't last.

Maybe the term Retire is not really a good word. To me, retire doesn't mean stop working. Shared in first post, simply means stop working for the sole sake of earning money and to pursue passion which doesn't earn money while having the money to feed you as you pursue the passion.
I view it as don't need to work for money and commitment as semi retitement. Is like a social connections and interactions.

marry out of necessity, divorce out of convenience.

probably the pain of tolerating each other is worse?

One of my friends made his wife only do ROM... None of those processes...

Then again I have no idea how the parents of the wife felt...

Can't remember since it was many years ago I met him at another friend's wedding.
They still together? Right?

u never heard of the concept of “ single tax” ?
travel alone one room cannot divide by 2 etc
marriage is economically more worthwhile if financial burden is shared
Ya many cannot have hdb and car without their spouse... Once divorced suddenly back to nothing...

Wow, but not mafan IF just go to Registry of Marriage ($42 for the Legal Cert.) and you are legally married.
Some household have many children/nephews/nieces marrying in the same years, will only be grateful NOT TO BE Invited to more than 1 banquet per year. Marrying is your own family matters nowadays! Banquets too expensive nowadays, such that some just call for better family buffets and the usual door gifts.
Of course if that family only has one kid marrying off, then will be keen to show off/entertain a bit.

No choice. When run out of money, divorce is the best option

tbh
how much can bto profit after the MOP which from apply till end of 5 years is close to 8 years
the ROI seems to be a little low

Depending on market conditions.

Maybe if market is good, easily 5 figures profit 🤔

Last time old generation never have such mindset of divorce;)
Even they cannot get along still together when the days they died.

We came empty go empty just come here for experience or enjoy life:)

Because nowadays young people are very different.

They are highly educated and can be independent themselves.

They can forsake their children when come to divorce

Same response. I will not decrease any time spent with wife and kids so that I can improve financially.

I have tasted happiness. Some things in my life are not for sale. For you, you are free to choose what you want.

There isn't any financial improvement like I shared earlier. There is only a finite sum which you can use to walk either path.
