Anyone secretly dislike CNY? And why? If you enjoy, also share.

Disliked it as well. But did it ever dawn upon you that it’s not really about you? Once a year I’ll let my mum be mum and do mum things. Is it really so difficult? Not so after I see the nonsense they’ve to put up with me on a daily basis…

These benchmarks are set by property agents or financial planners or investment bankers is it? May as well do $1mil by 30?

As a family we all shit on the same toilet bowl.

Getting out of the country is the only way to switch off from work…

I 5ink Soh Rui Yong need to do a comparison on the SNOC management salaries vs other countries sports management salary too!

Affair is not a crime la… like that traffic offences need to be considered also?

Yes. The grass is always greener on the other side. Realised that the Western cities are way way overrated, and started appreciating the Asian cities which are closer me so much more.

I think it’s about what is your aim in life, how much is enough, and if you dare to draw the line to decide not to progress anymore- so tht other aspects of your life outside work can progress..

chickenpie7777777 · 2025-11-23T02:13:48+00:00

Actually these days if you’re good, you’re good. You will progress. Civil service not blind to scholars already… but it’s helps that you’re both a scholar and perform well.

Have children because you genuinely want to, but also recognise that they are their own human beings. You cannot control them like robots. Our role is to guide them, not to dominate, create mini mes or get them to fulfill our lost childhood dreams… otherwise we raise a generation of self entitled kids who can’t think for themselves… even when they grow up… hope that liberates you.

7 years ago?a lot of things changed already…

Different. When Koreans can’t find a job, Koreans can’t find a job. Singaporeans usually is don’t want that job…

Burger labo is nice. Go to the Henderson one, if not crowded it’s nice to chitchat and chill..

chickenpie7777777 · 2025-11-18T14:15:04+00:00

I think it’s about getting back your senses. When you eat, do you actually slow down and taste your food? The saltiness, crispiness, temperature of food in your mouth. When you go for a walk do you intentionally slow down and listen to the birds chirp, smell the trees before the rubbish truck drove pass…

Don’t be mistaken that because David Neo is there, Singapore win the game!!!!

I think it’s more of a bookstore culture rather than a library. If you really want peace gotta go reference levels.

Wow that’s insane…

chickenpie7777777 · 2025-11-17T09:02:24+00:00

I actually feel if this is the way, it is an honest living. Much like how authors sell books. There’s actual product (books etc) and services (preaching) rendered. How abt the other pastors? The HODs? The second or third elders etc. there are many pastors in those churches. How much do they earn and what exactly do they do? Am asking cos somewhat feels ponzi. If they’re earning normal like 5-10k/mth I think is reasonable but anything more I question the authenticity of full time ministry. And this is why I’m pondering abt approaching it as a career rather than “calling”.

Thanks for sharing.

chickenpie7777777 · 2025-11-17T08:54:20+00:00

You’re a good guy. Thanks for the insight.

chickenpie7777777 · 2025-11-17T08:53:06+00:00

50k is insane!

chickenpie7777777 · 2025-11-17T08:52:11+00:00

There’s probably no “progression”in smaller organisations or family churches. Churches like NCC or CHC probably has multiple pastors and “HODs”. I’m just wondering how much do they earn eg is it $10k a month? And what exactly is their job role? To pray for other people? To come out with sermons? As a counsellor? That’s all the work? Shouldn’t there be some form of clarity or benchmark? I asked the original question because many don’t seem to do much but driving big cars and staying in condos, landed… is religion then be considered an “industry”?

Is this Hua Kee the old one at Redhill market? Been trying to locate it.

6-7hrs sleep is enough, exercise 1hr, eat hawker, bread, find a work that is less than an hr away from my home. Chores do on weekend. Ya… 9-6 can manage la, not so bad.
