    What do the Americans take for veragel?

    Just head into any CVS or Walgreen there and ask the pharmacist which is the equivalent there are so many antacids OTC. They will tell you. Only way to be 100% sure of H Pylori is to go for upper endoscopy.But stomach acid increases usually due to diet.

    Australia’s dreaded cost of living – manacle or myth?

    A$ falling is also a result of the carry trade unwinding. All those Japanese housewives are affected due to the the yen and low yield. We can expect a return to normalcy since the fed said tapering begins when unemployment drops below 7% in the US let's see what happens to gold and the A$ then...

    Why many Sinkies will die if interest rate goes up....

    SG household debt is more like 279% to GDP. our public debt is also sky high at 100% to gdp but we are rich because we run budget surplus every year that goes to temasek, unlike USA/Europe etc and of course don't forget the several years of 5% inflation that has affected every Singaporean...

    OZ Foreign minister said China does not recognise PRC naturalized OZ citizenship

    Re: Risk of doing business in PRC Been reading Gordon Chang a long time, since his book "The Coming Collapse of China" some of his predictions have come true, others have not. I like his recent descriptions of the recent transition of power to equate to nothing more than a Jiang Zemin...

    Affordable houses in USA

    Build quality is very good, usually masonry or wood frame where I am. There are some run down areas where you see homes like the one this bus driver lived in, so its all relative. There is literally a neighborhood for every demographic here.

    Affordable houses in USA

    Wendy, I am currently in the USA. Here there is so much variety and choice you wont believe it. I am in a sunny, warm state where properties are selling for about 70-100 US$ per sq ft. You can choose from many locations and styles of homes - I have seen one home with a bowling alley, some with...

    Are we better off now than 5 years or 10 years ago?

    Its a very good question. On paper, the economic gains are obvious. Incomes have risen, we are among the highest per capita countries in the world, asset prices have risen, etc. Singaporeans are wealthier than ever before. We are richer than many 1st world nations. These are all good but...

    How to settle happily in OZ

    the market is about where we expected it - down due to record numbers of properties for sale. Sellers don't aggressively lower prices in a down market - they hold out for higher prices and banks don't foreclose like they do in the USA. This keeps prices from moving more than 5% a year plus...

    If you don't earn more then 300K a year in Australia you are poor.

    Yes its been 21 years but now Gilliard is out there denying the mining boom is over. China is slowing AND rebalancing. People need to make an educated guess about what this means. Look at Fortescue, first blasted Chanos and now pulling back expansion plans. With this increased capacity I wonder...

    S’pore is now richest in the world

    I did not realize he was a PAP populist. Typical bull. Yes, the article states at today's exchange rates we have this high per capita but only at today's exchange rates. Most Singaporeans are well aware rates fluctuate - in 2009 the dollar reversed strength from 1.3x to 1.55 due to a flight for...

    S’pore is now richest in the world

    Your reply leaves me laughing out loud. Fine say the US$ sinks further and the S$ hits parity! The MAS will be thrilled! Our Govt will dance with joy! Exports? Why worry! When half of Jurong closes, unemployment rises and FDI becomes zero, our economy crashes Singapore will be be "richer"...
