Thanks for giving me some thoughts to think about! Yeah you're right, what I love right now may not be what I like next 10 years... plus things change and who knows I might have more kids than I intended in the long run... who knows right? You're right on that, thanks btw. Also I agree on saving my foreign currency part.

I do have some considerations on buying a property while I'm here since going overseas is not a I say I want to go then I go thing. Another thing is that while I'm here and still diligent on working hard and saving as much as I can, the money can go somewhere. I am gathering ideas on where it may go and I'm not hard stuck on housing yet. Seeing the advice on the thread, I'm more inclined to wait it out and buy next year.
I am thinking about buying while I'm here since I can invest in it and process any paperwork/maintenance etc process flows in-person myself before I go overseas. Plus once I go overseas, I'll need to help my partner out a bit since his background is more employer dependent while mine is remote friendly, so having some passive income through this period can help us both. Or in the long run, the passive income from rental can be money I transfer to my parents monthly for their retirement. I am trying my best to think ahead and shoulder the family myself before I go off anywhere so I wouldn't have to worry if I could've done anything for them.
