Housing Dilemma

Recommended Posts

My friend has a little housing problem. His parents of two different races divorced when he was young. He stays with his father from young in a three room hdb flat. His two other bros stay with his mother in another three room flat. From young he followed his father religion aka carefree type while his bros follow their mum's religion, every friday praying.

 

His father in his late 60's went Batam had his fun and made the playmate pregnant. So he brought the playmate back to SG n registered their marriage. His father told my fren that he needs to move off as he would like to form a new family with the new wife and their newborn.

 

So my fren packed his bags and moved in with his mother. Its a bit of a squeeze but my fren dont mind. But the thing is his mother is of religious type and my fren is the club hopping type. His mother cant stand her son behaviour and always nag at my fren. But my fren was brought up that way by his father, the carefree way.

 

He is in his late 30's but have zero dollar in his piggy bank to move out or pay for any COV for resale hdb flat. He cant stand his mother nagging too. He is the type who spend watever he earns. Please dont ask him to convert to his mother's religon, that will never happen. [laugh]

 

 

I made it clear to him that he cant stay with me. Any advise for my fren???

since he spend all his money n dont mind not having savings, tell him to rent a room. he still will spend his money (paying the rent) n hv his own freedom.

Living on his own can do whatever carefree things he wants

I dont think its the prayer thing. Its more like him going home reeking of alcohol.

Actually he is angry with his father. Keep cursing him in front of me. He told me he dont mind his father go batam play but making the other party pregnant n causing him to move out makes him unhappy and w/o a proper place to stay.

 

I dont know why cannot stay together, maybe its one of the other woman's demands that the father gotta fulfill??? [laugh]

 

I just listen only. Frankly, I cant help much.

he should have CPF money .... if not too picky, can probably get a3 room resale flat with minimal cash upfront (borrow some $$) at a more ulu location. Stay in 1 room and rent out another room for some money to repay whatever he has borrowed.
