    I hope you managed to save a lot while working in SG. In my opinion its not really worth doing this unlesd on S Pass or EP in which case you can afford to stay in SG or buy a SG plate car and drive.

    If you the tenacity to work for 10 years is equal to working in Malaysia for 30 years. With huge sum of saving, you’re free to start to do things that you like to do. But if you can’t take it, it is alright. The punishing hour of daily commuting to and fro is not for normal human being. Only Johorean able to do it. KL is also good alternative as daily commuting to work is also using the metro line.

    After a while it takes a toll. I don't think anyone can do it too long especially those over 30. A decision has to be made either live in SG or work in JB. I was a Malaysian working in SG but never commuted , stayed there. Was on Employment Pass and back then rental wasn't that high so it was a no brainer although my brother living in JB asked me to stay with him and his family and commute.

    i think it depends to how much money you need to live. if you have husband and kids, the higher salary job payment of course is needed
