Have forummer noticed that food portions are smaller while prices are higher. What used to be at S$3.00 is now at S$3.50. Those at S$2.50 is now at S$3.00. If inflation is at 5%, money sitting in the bank is losing value, with today interest at 0.5%.

With ZIRP policy in the foreseeable future. In the Singapore context, perhaps property is still a good bet, as reported that sales of private property is still high inspite of the cooling measures.

What about stocks and precious metals, such as gold or silver?

sinkapore is a bubble. PAP government is propping up the property market, that's why more aliens have to be allowed in. All bubbles will burst and when the sinkapore bubble burst, end of PAP.

Unless you drive a BMW 7 series, better don't try. I take bus one, don't dare to think :p

Once, I overheard my chicken telling her friend, "You ask him to buy you the ipad, then re-sell to me cheaper" :eek:
