I only did not apply for temporary relief fund $500 as I am not wkg, hence not eligible.
Today, rcv $1,500. Can make my false teeth to eat more.
And get a new pair of specs.

In addition, I am getting $550 COMCARE funds as A poor Retiree living/sharing in a one room rented HDB in MadPerson.

or was it spelled MacPherson.

So, I am contented.

BEGGERS CANT BE CHOOSY.

Now, back to roaming Raffles Place selling
tissue papers.

Can use them to buy cigarettes?

Bro, your threads always mention cigs and smoking.
Trust me. Give it up otherwise a lot of suffering.
I was hospitalised due to one choked lung.
The nurses had to feed me through a tube inserted in my throat.

Die Ok, but dont suffer until such pain and misery

$15,600 doesn't get anyone very far in this day and age. It can't even buy me a new bicycle.

U are only entitled to some payouts IF u meet the relevant conditions.


To qualify for SIRS, you must be registered as an SEP with CPF Board/IRAS making an income of under $100,000, and if you earn any side employment income like working part time as a adjunct MOE relief teacher, your gross monthly employment salary must not exceed $2,300.

To qualify for WSP, you must have received workfare payments in 2019, for work performed in 2019. The amount does not matter. Even if you received a mere $100 workfare in 2019 and nothing in 2020, you still get the full $3,000 WSP.

To qualify for the full U-save rebate of $1000, your registered address with CPF Board must be a 2-room or below HDB flat.

Come on, surely there are chaps here who can get the full $15,600.

i need $16.9k for a new bike.
View attachment 87593

I would love disc brakes. Anyone who has done emergency braking in the wet on a bike with calipers will have experienced what it's like for nothing to happen for a couple of seconds before they start to work. Disk brakes bite regardless of the conditions.

However a disc brake frame will make my whole collection of wheels obsolete including my $6000 lightweights.
