Could you live off an intern's allowance? 🥸
First reply!!
😂
No, I am a kid
With the Cost of Living Crisis here in Europe - no. Butter in England now is like £6 which is like $9.69 in Singaporean currency
Pssshhh I live off an NS Recruit allowance. I miss my intern pay
Given if it were me thirty years ago, yes it would be 100% possible. Now, I'll be starving myself le.
I have a friend who spent $300 per month, and he's a working adult at CBD area. $50 transport (As majority of the time WFH), Meals $70 ($3.50 nasi lemak for 20 working days) (Weekend meals eat at home. Dinner eat at home), personal hygiene stuffs $20-$30, $100 socializing with friends expenses, another $50 for emergency.
I swear, he's a legend.
alright now we need the uno reverse card episode: Interns live off Supervisors’ pay for 72 hrs 😆
This challenge MUST REDO lah. I last time internship where got get so much free stuff one! The only free stuff I got was my FAREWELL lunch on my last day of internship at Pizza Hut.
Fail lah this challenge.
There's so much free stuff. I think it already defeats the purpose. They are living on an intern's allowance, but they are given free stuff coz they are in essence still an experienced employee of the company. If you're an intern, you're probably starting off not knowing a lot of people and will probably not be thrown a "bone".
I think the next challenges should exclude free stuffs. Coz I wanna see them actually be smart with the money and not rely on free stuff from people.
i think everyone is missing the point that some of the contestants were trying to put across.
the reason why john is relying on handouts is because he gambled away his money
and since this seems to be a sponsored video, the message he is trying to show is that if you gamble away you money you will rely on your friends' kindness and next time you wont have friends anymore if you continue doing so
@@hamburger_milkshake1585 but the point of the video is living on an intern's budget. Sure, the video is sponsored, but there is no correlation about gambling and losing the money and having to live on an intern budget. The concept of the video itself is already a bad one from the get go.
If the video is about having a restricted budget due to "gambling", then the video would've been acceptable. They can be street smart and get freebies from colleagues for all I care. It would've still been nice if they stuck in the budget to see how they can stretch that limited amount.
But the title of the video is about living on an intern's budget. The gambling part was just a curved ball, and wasn't even highlighted that much. If it's a sponsored video of gambling, they could've had some sort of challenge that incorporates more gambling aspects sprinkled throughout the video.
Overall, the video is a bad execution of the actual goal, plus integrating the actual sponsor.
whats the point of calling it a challenge if you just keep relying on others to treat you
True
Savage. Lol
Nonsense kinda of challenge sia if mostly r sponsored.!!
Sad to say that this is the most disappointing challenge I have ever watched from TSL (I didn't even finish the video). In my opinion, the rules were too lenient so they end up just getting through this 72hrs challenge mostly from the help of people around them. Most interns don't have the privilege to do so every day with their lower wages so I don't know what is the actual purpose of this challenge.
"Singaporeans Try: Supervisors Live Off their friends & families' kindness while on budget for 72 Hours"
defeats the purpose. everything is free, you have bf or family support to give you food and drinks. unfortunately some interns don't have parents cooking for you everyday or could afford to. so this video honestly just shows how privileged they are than to fully reflect what intern go through daily.
This challenge is just showing us how to live off your friends and family. Just to be honest
LOL a $28 class on a $40 budget 😂😂😂 bruh no interns would go for a $28 pilates class
Moral of the story: Get your meals/ transport sponsored daily in order to live off an intern's allowance.
"Justin is chou chou" in the background of Amanda's cam though... 😂
homecooked food is understandable but free food and ppl sponsoring lunch/dinner v unrealistic lol
seriously… this video is the most disappointing one i’ve seen from TSL. please consider redoing this challenge with stricter rules :-(
This ep is Supervisors live off intern allowance or Supervisors live off colleagues sponsored?
I never knew chika’s name was sachika… until I saw this vids description…
Right from the beginning, all three of them missed the point of the challenge. I didn't watch till the end (cos the way they went about it defeats the purpose), so I don't know if they passed the challenge but in terms of the spirit of the challenge, they definitely failed.
Living off intern pay but in reality more like living on others. hahaha
Is Sachika wearing a 5711 nautilus? What a sick watch!
whats the podcast john was filming
Hi, what money management app is Sachika using?
Ngl I feel the challenge is plainly too kind. Maybe make it an independent thing thr, whr they can't rely on anyone 😈😈
Also isn't the allowance $500, why did it became $50?
@@cheddarred $500 is allowance for a month and they are only doing it for 72hrs. what type of "challenge" would $500 for 72hrs be?
@@cheddarred what kind of 72 hrs challenge is spend $500 in 72 hours???? Daily budget of $167 or wat? Already say pro-rated from 1 month of intern pay already.
@@cheddarred TSL budget not that high yet
Oh icic
new video new video!!
Wow

maybe retitle the video?
@@Kentokki007 correct. It's funny how OP tried to defend the video when it was clearly a bad concept to integrate the sponsor.
Editor is a big Taco Bell fan?
