$5k no good life arh?
It depends on how you spend your money and your definition of good life.
$5k is quite a lot of money if you are single, u can do a lot more with $5k compared to RM5k.

Every month lv pradda Gucci .. Lol.

Money is never enough for every body..

I don't have a car, feel is a burden for now lol.

yea, during non-peak hours, jb sg causeway could be a breeze and smooth journey but for this upcoming, i'm going during the weekdays after work time. So would like to know more in order to reach larkin in time. anyways, thanks for the heads up.  biggrin.gif

If from Bedok.

My usual practise as I stayed Bedok. You can make 168 bus all the way to woodland and change 950 bus to jb. I think can be faster than u go to bugis que the cw2

I tried the cw2 once on Saturday morning. The que is damn long, better just take 168 from Bedok as no long que

What can an event and marketing background worker can do in SG? Only SPM certs though. Do you think he can work in SG without any education certificates?

Sure he can. But not sure about which pass for him.

I think you stand a much better chance to convert citizenship to buy a decent place then to apply for PR to buy a decent place, but then citizenship need PR first so you are out of luck there. If you can afford SGD 650k++ to buy private shoe box apartment then that's a different story.

A better plan would be get SGD and convert to MYR and live like a king in JB smile.gif

Not a bad idea.
Ecoworld have quite a lot of development project in jb.

Trade off is travelling time lo

no such deal la.. unless you work in finance, appropriate wage adjustment would be 60% of ringgit. ie, if you made rm10k, equivalent would be $6k Sing. That is to maintain your current spending/income power.

we come here to increase our spending power, not to maintain laugh.gif
