But the parents did it anyway. So it is kind of heartless for the now grown up kid to say better to spent time earning money than to take care of the elderly parents. Because without those elderly parents, the grown up kid won't even be around to earn money in the first place....😆 Edited August 27 by Stary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throttle2 Supersonic August 27 Share August 27 surfed into this https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS2hx5jc2/ using outdated stats, this person therefore claimed that rentals didnt cause rises in food prices then instead according to her outdated stats , manpower cost and food prices cause the rise. yes even if that may be true 10 yrs ago in 2014. Everyone knows that the main cause today is rent. If want to look at stats, dont look at outdated, irrelevant stats lah, hor sim lah! Use your brain , use your brain. simple math also dont need calculator one lah. Aiyoh! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power of capitalism, a lack of financial literacy, and trying to keep up with the Joneses contributed to this. Earn more can choose to be in debt or not. Earn less has no choice leh. Of course, more is which level? The middle income, $5k per person are the one that need to live like $2.5k in order to qualify middle income. 😆 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shin Min Daily News reported that the Block 148 Silat Avenue stall closed on Sunday, ending an 82-year-old family-run business. Wang Xueying (tansliteration), 68, told the Chinese media outlet that the landlord of the coffee shop would be increasing the rent from more than S$2,000 to more than S$6,000 after renovations in September. "The people who support us here are all old people and regular customers. I don't want to raise the price," she said. "We are old, and it's time to retire. I am reluctant, but there is nothing I can do. Thank you very much for your support over the years." The ease in which the top of the food chain pass on cost down to the masses is really sick. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
