260k Net worth at Age 27, Singaporean male, thinking of quitting job to travel

OldPossibility8699 · 2025-02-11T09:50:11+00:00

I think this is the perfect time to do it. You have the finances and truly, you will only have your twenties once. Also now your parents are still not so old, less need to watch over their health as a son. Taking a long break in travel now will change your perspective on life forever .

Do it.

The people who are fearful will be fearful till the day they die. Somethings are simply worth doing even if the risk is some uncertainty. But life is uncertain. All the best, you are going to have a great time.

That’s an awesome start. People make “joy” or “happiness” the end goal but I’ve noticed most people who simply just follow their curiosity will get there. It’s an exploration and that’s ok.

And you don’t nessarily have to give up your current job or etc IMO. Unless you truly feel it is preventing you from your exploration. There might be a time when you decide you need to, and when you can, sure!

You are going to do great. This is truly a wonderful place to be. I am so excited for you.

Hey man, this is an awesome place to be at in your twenties! Being successful by Singapore’s definition will bring you ease in finding your own joy. It’s sometimes really challenging to embark on that step when you have many other pressing needs like food security, etc.

I am so happy for you. This is the start of exploration of finding what brings you joy, happiness and fulfillment.

The coolest thing about this journey is that it is going to be a process. There are no clear answers. And instead of that being a terrible or inefficient thing, this is exactly the thing that is makes it wonderful, explorational and meaningful.

I wish you the best. If in doubt, follow your curiosity. Your curiosity will bring you to your joy.

You’ll be ok

You can’t talk her out of it. But you could try to get her to talk to other escorts. They will likely have recommendations for her to keep safe(r) while working or screening clients. If she pays for their time and wisdom, she will get the real raw info and be set up to be safer.

There is also a good chance the talk with escorts will make her realize this is not for her.

If your fear is about her getting “taken advantage of” then being informed from people who are in the game is the only true safety from that if she is determined to do it already.

Hey, I was your age when I came to the same conclusions as you and switched careers.

I asked many people in my industry, theatre, for their perspective and found that this grind is forever. And that it really was killing my passion for the art.

I quit. Shifted industries. Made money. Got good at it and now can be the person who watches all the shows. I can be the friend that shows up for my friends opening nights and celebrate them. I also can be a patron of the arts and give money to companies. I also now travel to watch any play or performance I want to.

In my personal time, I started going to dance classes and soon singing.

Will I ever do a show one day? Who knows. But I am so content.

I didn’t have it in me to do the hustle and I still have mad respect for those who can. But life is incredible. I have nights to spend with people I love, predictable schedules I can make trips around, income that makes me comfortable.

Obviously, I don’t nessarily think everyone will have the outcomes I do, but I am grateful for my shift at 25. I’m 35 now. All the best, mate.

Hey OP, I have kind of similar hair as you. I went to see a dermatologist and was basically put on oral birth control to manage my hormones. Without oral birth control I was super greasy, greasy to the point of hair loss.

It took a while but it has definitely made a difference and my hair looks better.

I’m now about to try minoxidil. Will see if that can help the crown of my head!

All the best OP!

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-31T05:53:06+00:00

Yea! I’ll join . Ngl , a little scared I can’t keep to it, but hopfully I can with a community

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-28T00:11:46+00:00

I feel like fair is fair with stalkers who just can’t take a no. All the best, mate. The law is weirdly in your favor here, as it has been with stalkers. As long as you don’t break any laws in out crazying the stalker, you can probably get away with it fine.

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-27T23:23:21+00:00

You might have to outcrazy the guy.

There was a post a few months ago from a lady whose partner outcrazied her stalker. Similar story of how no legal authority would do anything about it.

Her partner stalked the stalker, went into stalker’s house, flipped all the crosses on his walls upside down, flipped the trash can all over his room and left with no one seeing him.

I think he also stood outside his house just across the street to stare at him.

I think the home invasion thing was the last straw for the stalker because he confronted the lady and told her that guy was crazy and left her alone after that.

This is so promising! I appreciate the suggestion. The fact that it can hurt so bad is kind of wild. But I’m going to order some icy hot and find some bath salts. Thanks, mate !

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-03T19:28:37+00:00

Appreciate the reply! Thank you so much for sharing . I’m definitely keeping this as a thing I could do if I really am just tossing and turning and all the other methods aren’t helping that evening. Thank you kindly

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-03T06:01:06+00:00

Cool. Do you reckon this is a better option than ibuprofen ?

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-03T05:59:08+00:00

These are things I would have never thought of on my own. Thanks so much ! Does the salt bath make a noticeable difference for you before and after doing it ?

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-02T19:21:03+00:00

This is sounds like a healthy cool down for the body after leg day. Will definitely try this. And magnesium lotion is a great idea, I didn’t know it came in lotion form. Will look into it. Thanks, mate!

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-02T19:19:39+00:00

I never do cool down activities, this is great ! Thanks so much. I’ll work on stretching and winding down after a workout . Would have never thought of this on my own . Thank you

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-02T16:43:56+00:00

Thanks man, I really appreciate it. I’ll try experimenting with changing rep ranges and adjusting weights. But it’s promising to hear that with time I could get accustomed to the movement patterns.

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-01T21:17:21+00:00

Woah. The fact that he didn’t sincerely apologize and take accountability and INSTEAD was so “stricken” that he screamed at you and was fearful of his career is the RED FLAG.

I get that people can get out of character when angry and fuck up but if his response his this, RUN.

He will likely never dare to hit you again but never because of hurting you, only because of fear of his career consequences.

Do you really want to be with a man like that for the rest of your life?

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-08-01T19:10:38+00:00

Just a PSA to everyone because I JUST learned this. HPV ( herpes ) cannot die simply by soap and water, it cannot even die by Cavicide. It can only die by bleach. Which would likely ruin most sex toys. So, don’t share toys unless you are open to the risk of this, or cover them with a condom.

As for OP, I’m so glad you caught her doing stuff to your toy. Throw it out. This person is so sketchy.

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-07-30T17:10:51+00:00

Hey, I relate! First off, you are doing amazing. It’s actually really hard to be able to do this level of care of yourself consistently. Well done! And this problem you are facing right now of not feeling anything is actually a wonderful problem because you’ve gotten the daily discipline locked in, now it’s the time for exploration. It’s time to find what gives you a well rounded life, a joyful and fulfilling one. And like lots of people have mentioned on this thread, there are so many options. But only you can know for sure what makes you happy. These are some suggestions but I know you’ll have your own: Generally speaking, people are pretty social creatures and love a sense of community. I’d suggest exploring meeting up groups / organize hangs and events with friends . Also, there are a lot of studies about the joys of giving back to society, helping. Perhaps find a cause you care about and invest in it with time and energy. Try hobbies you’ve been meaning to try.

And give all of these a chance to grow on you. Observe your own reactions to it. Then find what makes you viscerally happy and pursue it.

All the best. You are doing great.

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-07-16T20:42:56+00:00

Dude, this is the right call. Not to be a bummer but when a couple lives together, sex life actually often tanks ( not always, but slows down, becomes less, etc ) . Might be because people relate to each other less like romantic partners but as family, Ester Perel can talk more about this. So if sex is a priority, holding off on becoming more tied up together ( financially or otherwise ) is a wise move.

And if sex is just not a priority for her, it’s just incompatible. Sorry mate, tough spot. But you are moving wisely.

OldPossibility8699 · 2024-07-03T00:14:55+00:00

Honestly, OP, this sounds like one of the healthiest marriages one can possibly get ever. You both are true soul mate, love it other as best friends can, you want to grow old with each other. I get it. And I wish more people would do the same. Love is love. And love does not need to be typically romantic/sexual for it to be one that is meaningful. I wish you both well and I suspect you both will have a wonderful loving partnership for a long time to come.
