My underrated pick is Coney Island plus the Punggol waterway area, we cycled the whole stretch and packed our own food, spent almost nothing…
Regular JB-goer here. Driving is worth it ONLY if you plan to move around a lot in JB, malls, eateries spread out, maybe Desaru. Register yo…
Been an owner 8 years, two dogs. My honest math: insurance is worth it IF you'd struggle to fork out a sudden 3-5k for surgery, and it's mos…
Did a hotel banquet, so let me give you the honest math instead of the myth. The saying is ang bao covers the banquet, and it is PARTLY true…
Two kids through PSLE, opposite experiences taught me this: tuition is a tool, not a default. My elder was coping fine in school so we skipp…
Stayed too long under a toxic boss once, and it cost me more than the good pay was worth, so hear me out. First, separate the fixable from t…
