how to earn more money? i am non graduated.

By improving your language skills, by networking and by looking for money making opportunities.

Bill Gates didn't graduate either but that didn't stop him from becoming the world's richest man.

I'll vote for the party that will make a huge dome covering all over Singapore and put this tropical island in air-conditioning. Bloody weather.

You can camp out at gardens by the bay, $70 annual membership only. U might even bump into me there surfing sbf in the cool comforts of the dome :biggrin:

$70 includes 2 hr free parking some more!

Australian weather is far worse. I should know I had to put up with 45℃ summers on a regular basis.

Where I am in Australia, summer of 30-40 plus degrees is less than 2 months a year. so, that's not considered regular basis. As sinkies, 30 plus degrees is not an issue as that's sinkieland regular weather. Over 40 degrees in my state is less than 20 days a year for sure.

By the time I was 21, I had already saved $15,000. I started giving private tuition to primary school kids when I was 15 and continued through university.

Top local pimps must have been your ex students! :oIo:

Savings not enough to Pay And Pay! :oIo:

The OP is so out of touch with reality. In any case, he is living of the family and thus doesn't have a clue on financial struggles.
When median takehome pay is $1700, there is little left to save.

How can you compare that with our wonderful PAP?

I've retired. Fishing is now more important to me. If I was 20 years younger I'd spend all my time in wonderful Singapore. It's the best place on earth (thanks to the PAP of course) if you want to make a success of your life.

When I was 21 , I had $2k more than you i.e. $17k but that was an insurance payout after a road traffic accident.
Sadly now you have millions whereas I don't have, this is unfair :o

Read somewhere tuition as a career could fetch S$120,000 a year now a days if work hard of course. If one is wise and frugal, saving $80,000 should not be a problem.
