Nah I mean I'm joining the Singapore LYN 'club' hehe. Got a verbal confirmation from the new company, finance line, 80k/year. But don't wanna count my chickens before they hatch, will wait for HR to give offer letter first.

beside looking at the salary, u also have to consider the political stability, inflation rate, increment, 'safety', career and promotion.
I will prefer option (B).... political stability (stable), inflation rate (4~6%), increment (4~12%), 'safety' (low criminal rate), career (most of the mnc r regional hq/brighter future) and promotion (oh ya, u have work double hard as u r earning double currency + other competitors from china, india, and phillipines).

If u love to travel a lot, option (B) is a good-to-go and you wouldn't feel pain when u travel to Aus/Japan/US/Euro/etc...^^

Common room means a bedroom in an apartment (usually a govt type which we called HDB flats) without attached toilet.

common room at least could stay 3 people in a room.

I think its good to venture away from ones comfort zone especially at young age to gain more working and life experience. A good pay can be a good motivating factor to work harder and ignore some of the miseries of being away from home. But I doubt I will be staying in Singapore for good in my life - looking at somewhere less stressful , for that case Malaysia is wonderful.

OMG!R u kiddin me?!400sgd for both food n transport?!Cant be dat cheap right?
U muz be stayin nearby ur ofiz?
Say 12sgd 1day for food...12 x 30 = 360 loh...u oni spend 40sgd for transport?!!

My rough estimation is food - 500 or 600sgd, transport - 300sgd. << Was thnkin, if datz da case,i cant be savin much d. 
M xpectin da worst anyways.

Room near MRT is very important...10 mins walk is quite OK. Busses are horrible because they can be very slow sometimes, especially if you stay in the suburbs. Around Lakeside you can get a decent single room for $450 including PUB.
Most owners won't object to you boiling water to make noodles or porridge. If it involves frying or anything to do with oil, more difficult as it can be very oily (I have met many owners that are very particular about cleanliness zzz). But to be honest, eat a 2 veg 1 meat meal is only $3 here, that's quite healthy than anything you can do at home for a similar budget for 1 person. Singapore is not Australia or the UK, where eating out can easily cost a small fortune.
Wah what kind of weekend is that? Open bottle type? =). Anyone interested to have a TCSS session at Brewerkz? The atmosphere there damn nice.

i appealed after getting my bonuses and salary increment. 

im not sure, it could be due to im still new (< 2 years working experiences), perhaps my low salary  , i moved to another place in June 2010 (residential)...neway, just my guesses, i could be wrong.

I just learnt that it is compulsory voting in Singapore

Hey Lester said 4th June watch movie got promotion wor.. RM15 for one pair of tickets, anyone agree to watch movie on that day? Lester said since it'll be a whole day outing, have time to watch movie

So what you all think?

i believe with limited resources, it is better to buy what you need and what you can afford..  like me and i believe most msians can only afford hdb, but for me ultimate goal is the cheapest private property with the largest area, so i can get another property as an investment...

3 room flat means 2+1? is there such a thing as 4 bedroom flat? because if there's i would like to get one to bring my whole family here..

oh, then i mean 4 room flat, 3 room + 1 living room. I wanna buy one HDB as my first investment.

1) get postpaid no phone got contract?

2) since getting post paid but no phone will the plan be cheaper?

3) or not wont be worth it right since post paid might as well get disc on the phone?

i am new    pls be patient and tolong 

guys, if any of you shopping for headphones/earphones/whatever, highly recommend this shop named Jaben, 4th floor Adelphi (city hall mrt there). super friendly owner, and best part is you can sit as long as you like and try all the headphones/earphones as you like until you find a pair that suits you.
