QUOTE(megadisc @ Jul 22 2011, 05:58 PM) now rate is 2.4 only leh... house rental also so high Your salary won't stay the same forever. If you keep your spending in check as you get promotions and higher salary, the "high" rental becomes a smaller and smaller % of your salary and therefore, more affordable.When I initially came to SG, my rental was X% of my salary. My rental expense has increased 30% over the last 6 years, but as a % of my salary, it has actually decreased 25% (now 0.75*X%). |

Well, I am not to speed, but I just want to have the mobility to get around without being restricted to MRT.a lot more zebra crossing. a lot more traffic lights and u really gotto be extra careful here as opposed to Msia. fine or penalty here is expensive, and dun even think about waiting for discount. But SG COE is darn expensive... wrong timing to come into SG. Getting a car would mean forking out almost sgd 1k per month for 10yrs. I dont want that... heck even getting a cab to and from work everyday added up is still cheaper than getting a car |

QUOTE(ivanswk @ Jul 22 2011, 10:52 PM) long time ago so not sure still applicable, I return my Ep few day before my last day then they issue me a temporary pass, but on one hand I already hold the IPA from the new co. when reach new co, make appt with mom at riverwalk, bring the IPA with the new co sign, the officer will verified the detail, then can proceed to counter collect new card. it was p2 to p1 that time. last day means last day at your old company or last day before expiry?
