Ran the numbers properly before buying, so here's the framework. Total car cost = COE + OMV/price + road tax + insurance + parking (home + w…
This is a salary issue and there are real protections. Under the Employment Act, salary must be paid within 7 days after the end of the sala…
First car surprised me with the recurring stuff, not the upfront. Things people underestimate: 1) parking, a season pass at home (HDB/condo)…
After getting retrenched and taking 5 months to find work, I now keep 9-12 months, not the textbook 3-6. Here's my reasoning and setup. In S…
I've done both. MNC gives you a brand name that opens doors forever, plus proper processes you can learn and carry anywhere. SME gives you r…
You have more affordable options than the pricey private clinics. What I've used/researched: 1) polyclinic GP referral to a subsidised psych…
I accepted a counter-offer once and regretted it within 6 months. Here's why: the reasons I wanted to leave (bad manager, no growth) didn't …
Did ours recently, so real numbers-ish. The big buckets: banquet (usually the biggest, hotel vs restaurant vs void deck changes everything),…
The unspoken rule: your ang bao should roughly cover your seat's cost (so the couple doesn't 'lose money' on you), scaled by venue and your …

Yes you can buy out. Under the Employment Act, either party can terminate the contract by paying salary in lieu of notice for the unspent po…
HR here. Never give a single number, give a researched range and anchor to market. My script that works: "Based on my research for this role…

Did this exact math last year and switched to SIM-only, saving roughly $40/month. Here's how to work it out properly. The "free" phone on a …

Regular JB-goer, it's worth it IF you play the timing and logistics right, otherwise the jam eats all your savings in wasted hours. My hard-…
Yes, the framework changed, cats are now allowed in HDB flats under a licensing scheme with a cap on the number per flat (there's a transiti…
