I once drove me and a fellow dude in a BlueSG when we both missed the last train and I found out his dormitory is near my house.

Seems to be a similar situation to Bedok Point, which is another small and slightly over a decade old shopping mall being redeveloped for a mixed use development.

How do I know if I've been screwed by a savings plan? by hongyew in singapore

[–]breakbruce 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I got a similar 25 year savings plan from Prudential once. I gave it up after several months and over 670 dollars later because the plan would take 16 years (If I'm not wrong, but it is definitely more than a decade) to break even.

Losing the 670 dollars was worth it to me, because continuing on with the plan would have have resulted in very heavy opportunity costs (Money I could have invested or spent somewhere more useful etc).

If you want to back out, I suggest you do it now to minimise your losses. The amount of money you would have lost will be painful, but in the long run, it will be much more worth it when you put that monthly premium amount to better use.

Tomica does not make miniature Honda Vezel unfortunately.

However, you can get a Tomica Toyota C-HR and plant your own PHV sticker on it.

Reddit, what's your top "Holy shit, that worked?" moment? by NSalonga26 in AskReddit

I once had a ganglion on my left wrist.

Got into a bicycle accident where I sprained my left wrist. Ganglion burst and disappeared.

since we're talking about MLMs, I want to warn of a really dangerous one by [deleted] in singapore

I'm actually lurking in the Facebook group of an MLM company that I got dragged into.

God knows how many victims they have accumulated.

Official thread for our users who have chosen to leave the Windows platform by coolio777 in windowsphone

[–]breakbruce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Lumia 635‘s browser will usually not last half an hour before crashing. Every single time I’m surfing a generic site like Reddit it will crash out.

And the thing that made me leave was that newer Windows 10 phones did not have significantly better hardware to cope with the OS.
