For myself, is mostly to look after/cover my family. Also to avoid the additional loading when I do want to purchase health insurance in the future. To save on tax is a secondary purpose. It just that I'm still fairly new to the Medicare system. Will it be sufficient to cover my family medical...

Waiting for you Bro Neddy to start the thread on the latest Budget! Was surprised to see the baby bonus taken away (but there are other schemes superseding it like the Paid Parental Leave). Thinking of getting the Basic Cover for Health Insurance with Medibank Private. I've got about 6 months...

Which coffee taste better? Capsule or the old fashioned powder (coffee machine type)? I have a cheap $98 powdered-type coffee machine which i bought a couple of months ago from Harvey Norman. Only used about 5 times so far as I'm the only coffee drinker at home and seems troublesome to wash up...

Very true. I did my 'A's in sg and didn't get any exemptions when I did my degree here.. diploma holders from polys in singapore got exemptions. Doesn't matter if the uni is lousy or not. As long as you fulfill the min. requirements to start towards your CPA/CA, they will let you study...

Errr... " 98,000.00 SGD = 76,982.62 AUD" :p Plus wage in Singapore only up to $7k.. figure quoted above by ATO is the AVERAGE wage in 2010-2011.. Sg has a lot to catch up on if it wants its locals to work in such occupations..
