Passed a few of these while holding a full-time job, so here is the realistic plan. Coding round: yes it is usually leetcode-style. You don'…
I actually tracked this for a year after selling our car. Owning realistically costs a lot monthly once you total COE amortised over 10 year…
Best money we spent, and I was the skeptic. After a C-section I physically could not do night feeds, cook, and recover at the same time. Our…

I used to upgrade yearly and it was pure marketing-driven money burning, the year-on-year jumps are tiny now, mostly a slightly better camer…
You have more affordable options than the pricey private clinics. What I've used/researched: 1) polyclinic GP referral to a subsidised psych…
Push back, but do it smart. Variable bonus is discretionary so you can't demand it, but you CAN make your manager go to bat for you. I did t…
Switched to SIM-only three years ago and never going back. Do the actual sum: a "free" phone on contract is baked into a higher monthly (eas…
