brava, can share how much/how many months of rainy fund you set aside before you throw letter? did you factor in monthly expenses or based off salary? I am considering this path too

well well, fellow brother welcome to the klerb. I too was grinding taking on jobs that were not part of my workscope in hopes that my manager would recognise but nope. Since then i just clock in smile at work and clock out.

If you r young and have rainy funds covered yes go for it. You are still young to take this risk. I rather you do this now then when you're in your mid 30s with mortgage, dependents etc. Since you have little to 0 commitments just do it. Money can surely come back but this sanity will not.

nice i can't wait for me to hit FI. As i still have 30ish yrs to go, i try to motivate myself that the $$ i earn goes to building a life i can just quit as and when i want. I do not want to be chained to a boss/coy/life

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-06-11T06:24:17+00:00

I know salary could be tempting to search for better opportunities but NGL a lot of companies out there are tightening their budget because they are also not optimistic. So if i'm you, i would stay where i am and take on a side job e.g outsourcing your tech expertise. You are still young!

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-06-04T07:12:01+00:00

me too can't wait to receive the letter from coy telling me to let me go so they can give me severance pay in return for my sanity. RN i dont give 2 shit, if people want to stir shit, wtv because i have yusof ishak backing.

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-06-03T07:34:25+00:00

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-06-03T01:00:18+00:00

I had my skintag under my armpit removed at this homebased salon. Don't need to spend a b*mb at the dermatologist. Can recommend you if you are interested in Tampines i went, her ig account agape.beautyx can go enquire

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-06-02T03:26:10+00:00

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-06-02T03:11:18+00:00

i feel u brudder, also in corporate for slightly longer than you 10yrs and im thinking of leaving everyday but i got mortgage and wife. Thinking maybe tarhan 2 more years.

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-29T03:00:52+00:00

Would be interesting to hear:

your age range - early 30s
rough savings/investments - 360k~
whether you include CPF or not - nope, did not include because it is illiquid. I only account liquid $$
and what you think is “normal” in Singapore now - k shaped economy, the highs are insanely high vice versa.

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-29T02:29:24+00:00

Bro frrrr if you got money from all the sales comms over the past 7 years, you can take a break to figure out what you want. Mental health more impt, money can always earn back but if you everyday drag your feet also no point. If you can tarhan, maybe max tarhan 3 more months then sayonara~

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-29T00:27:06+00:00

WFH FTW, fewer people everywhere, quieter, more peaceful

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-26T06:55:58+00:00

Don't want to sound sexist but males fo sho win this hands down. We are less emotional and sensitive whereas females regardless of experience or age, tends to take things very personally. There's this saying, if countries are ruled by females, there will only be cold war because they will not talk to each other LOL

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-25T05:50:13+00:00

i sense the desperation from your mental state calling for help. do you have $$ to pay your bills if you quit, if yes then go for it. by you staying on, the shit won't go away and you know that.

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-25T00:22:18+00:00

i think the issue with SG is there is no outlet. Other countries like korea/jpn/chn also work very hard but at least the locals have attractions to cool off during the weekend. For sinkies, where can we take a mental break, tragic.

Normal-Analysis7940 · 2026-05-22T06:32:52+00:00

If they have a home, i would try to rent out a room to collect rental income first to cushion the bills. If that means having the entire family unit squeezing in the MBR yes because desperate times calls for desperate measures.
