When you want to express something, don't ask people question, just state down your fact lah. No confident in your own answer, is it ?

And I can't find what you are trying to express in your link. Beside the lack of knowledge in property, economics, taxation, no you show that you can't even read and properly present your points

I will give you in point form so you will find it easier to understand

1. Australia introduced GST in 2000. Australia is not in recession for the past 21 years http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/06/a..._n_2818610.html

2. Singapore introduced GST in 1994. The GDP growth rate for 1995 is nearly 9% http://www.unesco.org/most/apmrnw13.htm
"As an indication of the level of Singapore's economic growth, it may be noted that real GDP grew by nearly 9 per cent in 1995" - middle of 2nd para

3. Having the above examples, I will not be so naive to conclude that GST is the contributor to economic growth/preventive measure of recession. GST is a fiscal policy, and of course it will affect the economy. But you can't say GST will bring recession or create economic growth. Saying so will expose you are shallow and know nuts about economics

4. UK introduce GST in 1993. UK went into recession in 1994 for about 2 years. But so are most countries around the world during that period. The reason for the worldwide recession in 1973-1975 is because of the infamous oil crisis. That crisis alone is a subject you can write a thesis on and got yourself a PhD

5. The are many cycle of economic recession and boom. Just because a country implement GST in the preceding year of recession does not prove GST is the smoking gun. The same applies when GST is introduced this year, and the next year is economic boom --> you cannot say GST brings benefit to ecnonomy

6. Just like I can't say I start working in 1997. 1998 is Asia financial crisis. So you accuse me of start working in 1997, and caused the Asian financial crisis It is the same behaviour of a childish person, who always find someone to blame.

7. Recession and fluctuation in GDP is not the same thing. The definition of recession is 3 consecutive -ve GDP growth

8. The economy is the government's report card. If GST will cause the economy to go into recession, no government will implement GST. Easy to understand, unless you are really a kindergarderer

Yes, you are right. Must lead by example. If DDD, pls dont buy. If DDD but every year still buying, is this called DDD? or UUU? or DUDU? Cakap Must Serupa Bikin. Cheers.

Friend, no accrual accounting lah. Do you know what are you talking about ? Study first before you make comments lah ! Different level very difficult to communicate

Sorry to bump in here. Have been observing the progress of this thread a few hot topics. Realised something important but forgotten and not sure who voiced it out. Living in a few million worth of bungalow feeling proud and sound. Buying few hundred thousand condos flip here and there and calling poor buyers like us water fishes.

No doubt sounded very successful in a way if don't compare to those silence readers who might be even more successful (usually many won't talk too much if really successful, some who needs more attention and recognision will make some noise).

However, I believe property is a rich man game. When you look at the example above, rich people living in multimillion bungalow and buying cheaper properties worth few hundred thousand to flip to those poor working people and after being sold the property and pocket the profit, poor buyers are to be labelled water fish. So its no doubt rich gets richer and poor gets poorer.

What to do, poor guy like me have to just stand behind some ego rich guy smelling fart. However, I believe 1 day poor guys can make it to the elite group too but will make sure if I make it, I will never call poor guys water fish.

+10 judge

sometimes cannot blame them also.
being rich and noone knows is very sien.
so they have to find a way to announce to brag.

If it was me, I wouldnt call my buyer waterfish or stupid fella or anything bad like that. I would say thank you, sir for buying my house. it is a pleasure to do business with you

+1 mil

When I sold my house to my buyer, I wished him good lucks.
Recently when I went back to collect my letters, i found out that the wish came true.
He is rich now, changed bigger car and is planning to buy semi-D.
Win-win!!!

God bless him ..

1. Basically any one can be called water fish regardless he is poor or rich.
2. If poor guy shouldn't be labelled as water fish so would calling a rich guy water fish make sense?
3. If neither poor nor rich guys should be called water fish, then on who we should call water fish?
4. A rich guy flipping the few hundred k house after some remarkable mark up to a guy who can afford the price, can we say the guy is poor?

come on,
if you rich and dont show off now, when are you going to show off? wait until no money time ke?
if you rich and dont show off now, what for being rich?

Show of rich for few years is fun and feel great abundant ( like no need to see price tag, don't need to consider this and that budget.).

After a while.... most friends and people around you already knew you are rich... become not fun anymore & very stressful (sometime tense).

But... being rich and remain anonymous is the best..... that is u no need to worry those price tag and people still think you are not that rich.

No offence

i think i understand. i hope i am rich. but how rich is rich?

and i think i am the kind of person who will show off when i am rich.

Yeah, no point to lower it down a lot at this moment.

But things may change in the future, will keep it in mind.

Tikaram boss, this one can buy or not? Need more direction from you.

I don't know you guys know the meaning of water fish or not.

'Water fish' has nothing to do with whether the guy is rich or not.

'Water fish' is a negative meaning comment, it means the person is a stupid person whom others can easily take advantage of him, ie can swindle his money easily.

If I sold a property to someone whom I call him 'water fish', it means I have taken advantage of him, and it is a deal which I have upper hand over it.
