Getting tired and does not want to duel in it.

Common sense bro. My last reply on this issue.  end.

"moderately" is a vague concept and means different things to different people. Like MacKiddo mentioned, you could survive on that figure by sharing a small room with 2 other people, but does that fit your definition of "living moderately?"

If you look around, you might even get a room (small) all for yourself for around 550SGD ++ (no aircon, far from MRT etc.) Living with 2K is achievable but you won't have much savings (except if you save like crazy~ eat roti everyday ) . I concur with Mackiddo, depends on what you want in the short / long term.

I would say you could live quite comfortable with 1.5K++ (rent, food, transport, some minor bills) but this again depends on your lifestyle, etc.

they provide you free makan ?  can save a lot you know .. hahaha

My advise would be to stay near your workplace and walk/ bike to work if possible (also depending on rent ). Even with the efficiency of SG transport system you will not want to cram like sardine to work and back in bus / MRT after staying here for a while.
