the road to financial freedom doesn't need to be totally devoid of comforts and entertainment what. $10 extra for nice comfy seats that recline flat and a blanket to keep you warm, twice a month = $20 a month, hardly the kind of expenditure that'll break your plans.

However, i did renew my Malaysia driving license and is still valid till 2014. Now this have let me puzzling how come when i renew my malaysia license and i am allowed to do that since i am holding a singapore driving license. Is it due to i renew my license from the POS OFFICE?  hmm.gif

All UOB cards accepted. But I prefer UOB One card as it's cash rebate card. Collect so much points meaningless for me. Getting cheaper monthly credit card bills is what I love to see.
