Today during lunch...walked few rounds, few levels...backed to office to drink self made saliva for lunch 😁

I refuse to fund someone's rental...if Happy Hawker coffeeshop group can stay put on their food and drink prices...I'm sure everyone can be just as sincere to help each other to tide it through this insane inflationary waves...

that money printing machine should have stopped years ago...now fed kanjiong liao lor with 4-6 hikes...

reaffirming MCF saying $5K salary / month is the "new poor"?  

assuming 1 household = 2 pax working ...

lower 1/2 from struggling to getting by

If want to avoid useless gossip with colleagues during lunch, can just tabao back to eat at own desk lo. Bring homemade food to office needs to wake up more early to cook the food. Unless you cooked more for dinner and save leftover for next day to bring to office.

Good motivating reason to change your diet.

In fact, our diet should change as we age.
