    I almost had a heart attack when I saw the price of the HDB flat! And the COE for cars is also ridiculous. I am now in the US with my family, the house is not expensive, we own a car that cost us about $3,000 SGD. But of course there are pros and cons in any country.

      I am from New Zealand and I think the HDB flats are so cheap! Our house is 4 bedrooms, 5 years old and in a small city, here if we were to sell it now, it would sell for $1,000,000! If you want a 5 room apartment like the HDB flat in Auckland then it would cost at least $2,000,000. The value of the dollar is about the same in Singapore and New Zealand so it’s as expensive as it looks. $500,000 for a 5 room apartment sounds so cheap!

    I just got my work salary this morning and i bought a shirt and a pair of jeans from uniqlo to treat myself. After i watched this video, i went back to the same outlet and asked for a refund. Thanks TSL for making me realise how expensive it is to live in Singapore

    would be good to add the past prices adjusted for inflation too so that we get a more accurate representation!

      the "jiang" is frequently used as one word, especially in shows/entertainment/things of this nature. this isnt LHZB.
      actually watch stuff and you would know this... smh

      @bin.ya.min552 2 года назад

      @@shucklesors i think i know the word itself and the way we use in Singapore. So I am suggesting to use a 2 word to replace it or as overseas will do is to use the word酱. Yup

    5-room flat way don’t necessarily cost at least 520K, those are usually at mature estate. There is a big difference in price in mature vs non-mature estate.

    Yah, it's getting harder and harder for the younger generation to own properties these days. I do have to say that even with proper financial planning, you still can't beat fast inflation. It's good that our government return us a little of every tax-payer money but it's not enough to cover much of average minimal spending.

    • @shucklesors
      @shucklesors 2 года назад

      theyre not "returning" you taxpayer money. theyre giving you the tax that is paid by the upper bracket. you can easily find statistics on just how imbalanced the tax funding proportion is. for example, the upper two deciles pay more than $4 per $1 of tax benefit they receive.

    My takeaway from this video is it's expensive in SG. Dunno how people would be able to afford a house there.

    • @rachelcookie321
      @rachelcookie321 2 года назад

      My takeaway from this video is Singapore is cheap lol. Compared to New Zealand everything seems so cheap. Except the car COE, that is cheaper in New Zealand. But here like the food and the apartment all cost double the price.

      @rachelcookie321 2 года назад

      It depends where you are talking about. Not in New Zealand. In New Zealand that would cost you $900,000 just in a small city. For $520,000 you would have to live in the middle of nowhere! To live in Auckland a house like that would cost probably at least $1,500,000.
