Ran the numbers properly before buying, so here's the framework. Total car cost = COE + OMV/price + road tax + insurance + parking (home + w…
I actually tracked this for a year after selling our car. Owning realistically costs a lot monthly once you total COE amortised over 10 year…
Wish someone told me the mental game upfront. Physically BMT is designed for the average guy to pass, so unless you're very unfit you'll cop…
Been in a stat board for 6 years. Honestly it's a lot more varied than people think, but it depends heavily on which agency and which divisi…
Best money we spent, and I was the skeptic. After a C-section I physically could not do night feeds, cook, and recover at the same time. Our…
We took non-mature in Punggol back when it was still ulu and full of construction dust. First two years I complained non-stop, no proper cof…
I ran a noodle stall at a coffeeshop for three years before calling it quits, and the number one thing nobody tells you is the hours will de…
I made the jump at 36 from a marketing role into a data analyst position, no CS degree, self-taught SQL and Python over about 14 months whil…
Consider the renting-while-waiting math seriously because it can eat the BTO savings. We didn't want to stay with parents so we rented a roo…

Switched to an MVNO SIM-only plan two years ago, never looked back, but let me give the honest nuance. The MVNOs (the budget brands) actuall…
Mixed feelings after 5 cycles. The camaraderie is genuinely the best part, you reconnect with a bunch of guys you'd never otherwise see, and…

Relax, at 40k a year you are nowhere near needing GST registration, so your friend scared you for nothing. GST registration is only compulso…
My underrated pick is Coney Island plus the Punggol waterway area, we cycled the whole stretch and packed our own food, spent almost nothing…
After years of trial and error, here's my decision rule. Go to a PRIVATE GP when: it's a simple acute thing (flu, cough, minor infection, MC…
You generally cannot sell on the open market before MOP, full stop, that's the rule and there's no "penalty payment" workaround to sell earl…
Negotiated up about 12 percent at a local SME last year. The trick with SMEs is they're less rigid but also more personal, so frame it right…

With AL 12 your daughter is in a solid range and has good options, but strategy matters under the new system. Remember posting is by school,…
I deliberately went slow on CPF top-ups in my early 30s and I don't regret it, different philosophy. My reasoning was that in my 30s I value…
Realistic range now is 10-20% for a lateral move, more if you're also stepping up in title or moving into a hotter function. I moved last ye…
Regular JB-goer here. Driving is worth it ONLY if you plan to move around a lot in JB, malls, eateries spread out, maybe Desaru. Register yo…
