They want to be the "Fat Cat" who sits behind the desk in the comfort of an air conditioned environment, ordering their subordinates while telling themselves, "Yes, i've made it".

Since this is a Singapore thread, I was expecting a more "Singapore oriented" insights. I just arrived in Singapore 2 months ago. Able to save SGD 2800 a month excluding bonus. Single and non-PR -- HDB is still a dream  sweat.gif  Other than working hard and making sure I won't be sent back Malaysia "prematurely", I'm currently exploring Singapore investment options.

1st half of the film does charm you. However once the wedding and honeymoon ends, Breaking Dawn ceases to be the beautiful fantasy Twilight film you so thoroughly fancy. It changes track and ends up as a spooky tragic dull drama. sweat.gif

What happened to Malaysia?’
http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/2011/11/2...ed-to-malaysia/

How does one measure the success of a country? To the people, it is reflected in their overall standard of living.

Not every country is lucky enough to have a team of intelligent people whose passionate objectives drive them to make their country a better place to live – for everyone.

Singapore is one such country. Today this island republic has one of the highest standard of living in Southeast Asia.
