You should ask the government why the price of BTO flats and COE so high? Why the cost of living so high too? Do you dare to ask?

Obsession with money? The Catholic Church has no moral authority to tell us anything about it. 
Oh, and human trafficking is HUGE business for the Vatican and its 'charitable' or 'religious' NGOs.

S'pore is the most expensive city in the world, so we have to be millionaires just to enjoy a middle class standard of living like in other developed countries.

If a S'porean man retires at age 62, he can expect to live for another 20 years, and may need at least $2 million to call time on his career.
Most low ses sinkees do not have a gravy train and have to slog until they die.
Money is not the lowest denominator. It has nothing to do with control, Mr Cardinal. It's everything to do with desires.
With money, desires can be fulfilled. The desire for a condominium needs money; the desire for a car needs money because COE is measured with money, not grace; the desire for a chiobu needs money, even a Christian chiobu; the desire to cure a sickness needs money because the Christian doctor desires a BMW and he will charge you for the cure because he knows the priest or pastor, unlike Jesus, cannot perform faith healing.

How much money do seniors earn collecting used cardboard? That ignorant Tan Chuan-Jin once insisted that the elderly do this purely for exercise.

Mainstream Christian churches are opposed to this form of the "prosperity gospel" as preached by the likes of Kong (Con) Hee and Joseph Prince.

Coming from a place where they tax their devotees monthly! That’s rich.

The Prosperity Gospel is a controversial set of Christian beliefs that teaches that monetary blessings and physical well-being are always God's will for believers. The Bible never promised that every day will see sunshine and we won't have troubles here on earth.

His homily has moved me greatly. I am inspired to renounce all material possessions and will take a vow of poverty and abstinence.
