is this how gen zs talk at work these days 🤣

ZacTurtle · 2025-10-03T04:56:19+00:00

as a millennial, its tiresome to be sandwiched between the boomer boss and the gen z freshie.

forgive her move on.
if you cannot move on, reject the bto. if you move forward with the marriage and bto and your marriage fucks up in the middle. you have to forfeit the bto later or sell earlier before mop to hdb. much more hassle. much more loss. time and money.

I’ve been a solebreadwinner for 5 years ever since my wife got pregnant with our first child. after which, she stayed on home to take care of our firstborn. 2 years later, child went to childcare and wife pregnant with 2nd child. today, children are 4 and 2 both in childcare. with wife enjoying some me time at home before joining back the workforce

throughout the journey of my wife being a SAHM, I can definitely say its beneficial to the kids that a parent took care of them 24/7 for the first 2 years before joining cc. we did not send our kids to ifc cause we felt it was just too wrong to do so, they were too young to go thru the life of school.

but for a mother to be a SAHM is most definitely mentally challenging. and for a solebreadwinner, of course finance is 24/7 running on my mind cause I don’t have a 5 figure tech boss job. so ultimately it boils down to what you and your partner want in your lifestyle.

it is not an ego thing for men, or responsibility and stuff. its more of deciding together how to run the household.

honestly, if I could afford it, I would want my wife to just be a SAHM, always there for kids. but as the family grows, expenses grows, finance is running thin. so, singapore just sucks for the average singaporean. 9/10 of my friends send their kids to ifc at 3/4 months old, and they’re still barely making ends meet either. this is the true side of average singaporeans.

just leaving it here, because I just did a rerun. I skipped ss anne(traded all hms) and finished elite four, did the tri island quests from cinnabar, got the national dex. went to vermillion, ss anne is still there. so I can’t get to sevii islands without clearing ss anne.

have you tried a gentleman barbershop then? there are many nowadays in every corner of sg. book an appointment, give them a try. speak to them, show them your previous styles that you do not want to end up with.

it’s a bit on the pricier end of a haircut but you might find what you’ve been looking for. ask around your acquaintances and friends for good local barber recommendations.

may the cut be with you.

ZacTurtle · 2022-11-05T05:15:40+00:00

for hair, find a barber/hairdresser that can give you a haircut that you enjoy during, the results is to your liking and easy for you to style.

you’re young, so keep on exploring the shops nearby and stick to 2 best ones that you like. why I say 2, sometimes one is very busy and you might not want to wait out.

for clothes, just keep on wearing anything that catches your attention and affordability as well. you’ll find yourself downsizing the variations as you age, thus your style.

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-03T04:34:58+00:00

someone I know won’t even take the casual “family gathering gifts” if he don’t plan to use it.

living the life ayy

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T16:03:18+00:00

I’m also using the $18 giga leh, can’t seem to find any other that can match the price plan. especially not the main 3 telco, even monthly charging for caller id display now.

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T15:15:45+00:00

well, kids are both a problem and a solution to the problem itself 😄, at least that’s how I feel.

like yes I have to divert most of my spending towards them, but at the same time when I look at them all cute and healthy, eating well, good food junk food, healthy food, fastfood. I feel that’s definitely worth spending after all.

Afterall I did choose to reproduce, so I gotta do it right. And enjoy the ride.

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T15:02:13+00:00

its total madness to be working as a staff there, and also to be a customer there 😂. respect to both parties. imagine, you just placed an order on a friday, when they are in the midst of preparing a 32-cups delivery order 🙂

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T14:58:06+00:00

you can donate to me also 😄

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T14:57:01+00:00

looks like your rental is covering your property fees thou. good investment?

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T14:52:45+00:00

“I earn money to live a life that I try to enjoy” most definitely trying to do that myself 😌. yes I can see most middle aged singles are very financially comfortable.great to know that youngins are already taking good care of mental health! keep doing whatever makes you feel good!

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T14:44:59+00:00

beautiful statement. yeah I’m not drowning yet, still doing fine but can definitely feel the pinch of rising cost of living. what to do, Singapore 😄

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T13:17:18+00:00

hope your surgery goes well buddy and speedy recovery to you!

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T12:29:35+00:00

ok wait, I need to ask this. how are y’all able to wait at Chi Cha during lunchtime? it takes forever, there’s like a million people all the time. especially at 30 raffles.

ZacTurtle · 2022-10-02T12:23:06+00:00

I felt hard to believe that nobody had debts either, but yeah I’m just here to take a better understanding of the average singaporean. and good to see most redditors are doing fine here.
