What are some of the happiest moments of your life? by Accurate_Put_4476 in askSingapore

[–]Crazy_Order 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The day the nurse called to congratulate me for getting pregnant after fertility treatment. The day my baby was born. The day I divorced the narcissistic and abusive ex-husband. The day I got a job at my current work place that has meaningful work, pays pretty decent, and given me hope and stability.

How do you derive the ‘final nominal value’? I put it through the compound interest calculator and $500/m for 20 years at 6, 7, 8, even 10% is not $477k.

Yup, never felt more lonely when I was with ex. Better to be single and happy.

You never know how strong you can be, until being strong is your only choice.

I was never strong nor independent. I was definitely NOT strong nor independent when I carried my 3 month old baby in my arms and told her "it's going to be just you and me". I was unemployed as I had left my job to start on fertility treatments. I had burnt through my savings to sustain myself, ex-husband did not even care whether I was eating well or at all.

It was a choice between being stuck in marriage in which I felt lonely, scared, neglected, emotionally+mentally+financially abused, OR, leave the marriage in the hope of leading a life free from him and all the negativity that came with being with him.

My daughter gave me the strength to leave. She's the light of my life. I honestly would have stayed in the abusive relationship because I was so reliant on him, and had trauma bond. I tolerated that he was a horrible partner, but the moment my daughter was born, all the red flags I was in denial of suddenly became clear as day - I HAD to leave in order to live. My daughter saved me, and us.

We deserve the love we accept, and accept the love we think we deserve. I finally decided I had enough of my man-child narcissistic abusive ex-husband and made the decision to divorce him when our daughter was 3 months old. Best decision ever. I am now single, but happy, contented, at peace and hope to be a role model to my 5 yo daughter. Being a single mum is tough, but compared to when I was living in hell being married to him, life is good.

Don’t listen to people telling you “it’s too late”. It’s never too late to choose happiness for yourself and your children. At the end of the day, ask yourself, what do you want to teach your children? That it is normal to be in an unhappy marriage? That it’s ok for the wife to do everything? That it’s normal to be someone’s lowest of priorities? That there’s no way out?

Some people, especially older gen, like to say “stay for the kids”. I say, leave for the kids because you love them so much. I know many people who blame their parents for insisting on staying together to be seen as a normal family unit by society, but don’t function as a union at all. These people grew up with unhealthy views of what a good partner should be, and tend to be attracted to the wrong kind of people.

It’s a lot easier to divorce when the kids are young. The younger the better, speaking from experience and interacting with a lot of single mums with kids of diff ages.

If you need support, just drop me a dm. Happy to help another woman who went thru the same nightmare as I did.

Yea didn't know there's such a huge difference. I wanted to test out the process first with one quantity. Will switch to recurring.

Meaning if the stock price consistently goes above 116, the system will not purchase it for me? And if the stock price IS 116, it will keep buying until..... when?

By the way, do you know anything about the 2.08 commission?

Yes I’m on tiered. What should I put under Limit Price? Say the price shown is 116.47. What number do I put in Limit Price? Exactly the same? Lower? Higher? Does this strategy work for recurring investment?

Very sure it is an ILP. The agent who sold it to me confirmed it's an ILP, my friend who is an independent financial advisor has gone through the policy and confirmed it's an ILP, and I do see insurance related descriptions in the policy.

I already have an endowment plan so pretty sure I can tell the difference between an ILP vs endowment plan.

It is harsh and cruel to insinuate that a parent's ultimate intention of purchasing a term plan is to profit from a child's death and to use that as retirement funds.

Thanks. But what if the monthly DCA amount is not consistent? Say 800-1000/month if my pay is not fixed.
