working life is heaven here! hohoho..the transportation and working environment is good. NO TRAFFIC JAMS and BROKEN LRTSsssss/monorails/ktmssss..
no more lrts tat stop in the middle of no where...
sad to say..i miss malaysia soo much, but till they improve the transportation there......

The food is alrite if u know wer to makan
its not expensive dollar to dollar.....u will be earning proly the same thing in msia...
besides the rental part...everything seemed cheaper and u get to save abit. BUT!! unless u r earning more than SGD2.5k...dun bother coming coz no point after all the expenses, u will be left wif pretty much nothing.

my expenses now;
sgd450 = room (near town and 5 mins from mrt)
sgd60-sgd80 = transport
sgd200 = go back kl twice a month(lesser than this actually)
sgd500 = makan
Total = SGD1230

(dun forget the TAX, and mics stuffs)
but basically spend around sgd1500 ....the rest can save.
so if u r earning 2500, at least can save around rm2k per month or maybe lesser since shopping here is dem dem good!

er...u dont pay yr parents? wat abt entertainment?

btw, sgd450 for room is crazy, i can pay installment for a mid range apartment with the rent

mind those who tend to work in sg,

ofcoz like others said is good pay in sg but thinking that u'll be living in sg and spend in sg for most of the time. it doesnt make any huge different.

mu cousin's case:

all the while he worked in sg, work hard and save hard. few years later, manage to buy a house in MALAYSIA, mind u, not sg. and now he's having this problem whereby his investment is mostly in msia, he wish to move back and work here but the pay in msia cannot support his investment.

end up, work in sg but cannot enjoy the stuff that he has invested in msia, eg. house

so think b4 u make any decision if u want to work in sg, money is important but not everything. especially for youngster.
