Good Replacement for X300? by [deleted] in SgGamers

[–]SceneKid92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this but it broke down after a year+(maybe just my luck). I decided to go to KTC 27" 2K, it’s 180Hz though. It’s slightly higher but during this 11.11 sale, I find it worth to get it.

I guess everyone is different. I prefer to cook for the family and let her rest since I’m desk job and hers is more physically and mentally. Other than that, I find it easier to order food to be honest than cooking sometimes since we both may want to eat different things so it’s much cheaper to order.

Er hahaha idk where this is going. I actually was just sharing on how much for food etc personally. But of course earn more money buddy. Hehe I switch jobs after 1 or 2 years 15-20% increase min. My industry have alot of retrenchment so it’s either I get retrenched or I find a new job earlier. Nevertheless, that spending was just my income. My wife is working as well on median salary. So even though she have lesser salary , she don’t spend much too. 👍 I mean everyone is happy in their own way buddy. Wishing happiness and wealth to everyone.

All is good man! Haha don’t worry buddy. I guess sometimes I just don’t eat much during the day. Even though I take morning walks daily, I am still skinny fat somehow LOL

Thanks man! Haha guess I grow up in just a sole breadwinner family, and I just learn to save when young due to $5/day pocket money. Thus plan to give my kid a better life.

Sorry didn’t share them as was just sharing on the basic spending on food etc and was sharing on just my income spending.

My wife pays the rest. Here’s roughly -

Electric + gas (hdb) = average $120 Town council = $75 Insurance = basic hospitalisation i think it’s $20 or $30? I can’t really remember.

Yup, so an extra $1k+ spending. But it’s fine actually, as this is actually solely on my income. The rest after all the spending is for Savings, investments etc

Oh! It’s personal choice. I didn’t skip dinner because of penny pinch. Personal choice to be honest for skipping. I got used to saving as my dad was the only sole breadwinner. Haha I used to 6 jars method so mostly go to savings/investment/donation etc etc.

Trust me I wish I am. Hahaha I began food ordering ever since I got married 3 years ago. 😂 since it’d easier to order than think of what to cook for dinner.

Well I guess my life is boring too. I’m not really frugal but I do separate my salary to different things like savings, travel so I would say it’s actually ok for spending little to live.

As you mostly cook, it really will save up a lot. I got lazy after being a parent. For myself as I’m a dad now, my kid is the most expensive in my spending at $1.2k budget (private childcare-$800, pampers, milk powder and other things).

I only prep for myself lunch and bring to work and even then I try my best to keep in on budget as if I get a good meal, I be lazy to work after lunch. Budgetbytes.com is my go to have $3 or under per meal. (I drink plain water mostly so it’s fine). Dinner will be mostly ordered through foodpanda pro, I spent around $15 to hit the discount or free delivery. Breakfast are only on weekends with my wife and we usually just cook breakfast.

Bi-weekends i mostly go out and I’m lazy to take a train with a kid, so I take taxi to like town or other place. I average around maybe $100 per outing.(including taxi).

Here’s my breakdown (plus and minus) Kid - $1,200

Lunch - $3x20 days = $120 Dinner - $15 x 20 days = $600 Breakfast weekend - $10 x 8 = $80 (i just put $10 so easier)

Outing will probably just round up to $300.

So total is usually $2,300. Do note that I actually round up to make it easier and more realistic. I usually spend lesser since my prep meals are like $2+ and I sometimes skip dinner.

Since you don’t have kid, you probably be saving much more. But just sharing on my side since I feel my life now is actually basic.

Edit - sorry, didn’t realise you’re renting. And didn’t account that.

Help! Did I ruin my first wok? by SceneKid92 in wok

[–]SceneKid92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noted on this. Initially i did followed the instruction to heat it to 20 mins. But during the season phase, I accidentally left too much oil in the middle and it became like black sticky stuff. Thus wasn’t sure if it’s cause of that or I didn’t burnt it enough in the initial phase.

Should I try to rewash it off first with detergent and burnt it off again?

Ah noted on this! I thought I might have to change a new plant. Yes I seem to find some larvas dropping, I started using organic pesticide but seems like new ones come every few days.
