An A answer scores 10 points, B answer scores 5 points, C answer scores 0 points. Not applicable answers just give 0 points. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ How the scores define you? 120 to 150 points You are a card carrying, point-earning member of the auntie and uncle club and proud of it. You can be fierce and unyielding, but you can also always be counted upon to say what's what. Nobody messes with you. 80 to 115 points You have definite auntie and uncle tendencies and are happy to embrace them. You can easily level up with little effort - see some A answers for some useful tips. 35 to 75 points You have your auntie and uncle moments but have, perhaps deliberately, kept some of your impulses in check. If your response is just a shrug, then maybe that just isn't your scene. 0 to 30 points You are an un-tie or non-cle. You could possibly be a laidback tai-tai or towkay, but that can be confirmed with another quiz. (Meaning to say, high SES or not).

I am sure there are way too may polish company out there. Some have mention 9H hardness Some say glass coating other says ceramic coat But is there like a standard where optical brightness or coating before and after have a benchmark of quality that you can identify with other than, wah swee. Polish liao kilat kilat. May not mean much. Plus you spending a $1xxx into it. Only to have word of mouth from one person to the next. Is there like a tick, check box like window tint to validate the shine ?

Spin off from the earlier thread which was locked... Just wondering how you blokes out there perceive or define how a man's financial responsibilities are - in a marriage? There's no right or wrong, I guess largely, it also depends on a person's upbringing and family environment. I strongly believe that husband and wife should both contribute financially. Doesn't matter who contributes more, mostly the man, but its the core principle that a marriage is shared responsibilities and hence, in a world where women are increasingly independent and demands equality, I reckon this is fair practice. Marriage is a partnership, and with dual contribution, the potential to achieve greater things grows 2 fold. Of course, I know of many women who disagrees... So just wanna hear your views.

Anyone can advise how to define shipping charges for online shopping? if i want to sell something online but how do i tell buyer how much to pay for freight? assuming im selling small items, i understand registered local mail flat rate is $2.50 but what if customer buy more and how do I charge them accordingly? any mechanism to calculate? i intend to setup online website selling stuff. i tot of using paypal to link the transaction but the problem lies with deciding how much to charge on shipping. Do you think if I sell in gmarket will be better off? I simply link my website w catalog directly to gmarket? not only can attract my buyers who visit my website, i can also sell to gmarket buyers who happen to browse for items?

For me...I spend a lot of quantity time with my girl...as well as quality time. Recently we have this sweet 'habit'....close to her bedtime...she will sit on my lap and we will watch her fav show from babyTV....then as she gets tired..she will rest her head backwards on my chest...and I will ask her.."baby...sleep sleep already ok?". When she is ready..she will nod her head and I will carry her to bed bed.

Always seen in ads by car dealers: Be prepared to turn heads on the road... How do you define a "head-turner" For me, classics like this: (Saw this at the carpark near my house some time back, hope the owner doesnt mind!) AND Sports cars that you dont usually see on the roads (though you can find many of them on sgcarmart) (Saw this at Jurong Hill yesterday, hope the owner doesnt mind too!) How about the bros out there? What makes your head turn on the roads ?

How would do define success for yourself and how does that differ or similiar to what the average Singaporean thinks of as success. Most of us will admit having money is important as a criteria for a defined successfully peson, but what is it that you would wish to do with that money. Buy cars or property so that others will defined you as successful or get your children to the Harvard or Oxford or buying all the blink gold chains to show you have the $? Or even having people love you can be a define successful person? How would you define success?

Was at HDB today for my appointment after selling my flat. Looked around and saw Punggol Spectra being offered on BTO but to apply online. They are actually building 2,3 and 4 bedrooms together as one precinct. Two bedroom flat starts from S$89,000. The 4 bedrooms start from 249K till 290K or thereabout. The prices seem to be a bit lower but the catch is that to buy a two bedroom HDB flat you have to eran less than 2k(household). So I believe very few will qualify. Be quick if you interested cos it will stop on 14th Sept. You need to "qualify" as a low income earner though. What is happening to HDB now? The prices seem unreal for a "subsidised" flat. We are supposed to be in a recession ......... notwithstanding the official spin doctor clarification from HDB that it is still affordable. Guess what I can actually qualify to apply from HDB again and get subsidised price without paying the levy cos I can "tag' my mom as the seller.

as the above... or does it really exist?

As above..is it as long as it is not those steel rims with rim covers or must be after market rims? Coz it seems to me that diff people have diff defination for sports rims..
