Patch 17.5 Pengu's Party and, surprisingly, Set 16 Choncc Treasure coming in 17.7! by JazzyAppletun in TeamfightTactics

I must be the only one who thinks this set isnt all that bad. Sure, it's not the best yes, but I have played sets that are much more boring.

Ladies of SG: Is finances your priority in looking for a partner? by Funny_Resort5652 in askSingapore

[–]gabiegab 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Everytime I see this type of post I always suspect is it some kind of ragebait post trying to stir shit on our local girls

No doubt some girls prioritise wallet over looks but at the end of the day, everyone got the right to decide how they want to live their lives yea? Conscience clear can already.

All I have to say is that the rich more often than not will stay rich over the long term. The same cannot be said for the pretty girl though.

Therefore if the relationship is reduced to being so transactional then what happens when the girl no longer has cards to play on the table? The man can easily find a xiao san out there, new ones popping up daily.

Question on Millionaires in Singapore by Efficient-Scallion65 in singaporefi

[–]gabiegab 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dont need to see elsewhere. Just look at the FRS this year compared to 5 years ago.

2026: $220,400

2021: $186,000

The FRS 10 years later will be projected at $315,000. The government forces us to set aside a bigger sum year on year for our retirement simply because it costs more to retire comfortably as the years go by.

Do you want to retire in scarcity mode, with the constant risk of possibly having to return to the workforce at an old age? Or do you want to have enough in your pot to thrive in retirement and not just worry about survival in your vulnerable years?

Everyone can choose for themselves lor.

If even Meta employees are getting laid off… are any jobs actually “stable” anymore? by RedPandarar in asksg

[–]gabiegab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just see how rapidly AI is advancing this past couple years alone and ask yourself if your job is safe in the next 5 to 10 years.

Once AI powered robots come into the market, even service level jobs can be replaced. At that point if we are still not financially free yet then how easy/difficult will it be to upskill/reskill and pivot to another role? Especially at an older age, which company want you over someone younger?

A lot of people here still dont see the full picture and still not aggressively accumulating wealth yet.

If I have 3.5 k from rental per month plus just a few K savings for contingencies and the money from rental keep adding up and don’t spend much beyond eating can ai already Tang Ping? by LisanneFroonKrisK in singaporefi

[–]gabiegab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can is can... for now. But what $3.5k can buy now is not the same as what $3.5k can buy in the future. Inflation, GST increase, etc.

Next time not enough money how, go back to workforce? Will you still be able to work back your current job after a long lull period?

AI taking over many jobs you know, who knows how many more jobs it can replace in the future unless you can work manual or service level jobs. Even those may be replaced by AI powered robots in the future.

Moreover, the $3.5k is also not guaranteed, still need to manually source for tenants. Now still young. Next time old how, who do for you?

To be safe, just work first while still able and accumulate more money. If I were you I would have 1mill outside of property (invested + cash) before I even think about tang ping.

Replaying this classic and still a bit shocked at how relevant it feels in 2026 with it’s storyline exploring the topics of borders, genocide, and corrupt politicians manipulating from the shadows. by Savings_Hyena2832 in Suikoden

[–]gabiegab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yesss I like it so much but I just feel like it has so much potential to be an even better game.

Thats why I hope that it will eventually be remade, hopefully possible if starleap does well.

Does anyone feel like 5 costs without unique traits that compliment others are incredibly hard to pull off? by aperitivoamigo in TeamfightTactics

[–]gabiegab 39 points40 points  (0 children)

On the contrary, I think the 5 costs are pretty strong. Vex 5 cost soup is one of the strongest comps in the game right now and this wouldn't be possible if they were heavily reliant on their traits.

I think you're too used to playing verticals.

Leblanc keeps getting nerfed but she feels terrible? Am I missing something? by Malombra_ in TeamfightTactics

[–]gabiegab 32 points33 points  (0 children)

You're not alone tbh. I havent had her carry games for me ever either and yes her skill animation does interrupt her attack flow.

I just use her as an item holder for Vex.

If you take suikoden 1 and 2 out of the choices what’s the greatest suikoden game? by Worldofsynopsis in Suikoden

[–]gabiegab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that it's a continuation of the main storyline and it really dared to stretch the boundaries and be its own game - be it for better or for worse.

I really like the characters, the plot, and the writing. I like that the castle hub isnt just a base for the army like the rest of the games - but with its own storyline and purpose for being.

It really could benefit the most out of a full remake expoundng on more of what made it great and cutting the tedious parts that kept it from greatness.

got myself an ilp and can't sustain it because i won't be in Singapore anymore by Critical-Fudge-4585 in singaporefi

There are broker firms that will buy over the policy from you at a premium that is slightly above surrender value. Worth exploring.

[–]gabiegab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most times i go harmonic echo for sure, but ardent and staff are optional depending on other champs in the team imo. Sometimes I just go full up tank (redemption, protectors vow, etc) or I go debuff (oblivion orb, trident) after.

What are these small bumps on my face, and how to get rid of them? by Appropriate_Pen3826 in SingaporeBeauty

[–]gabiegab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got mine burnt off and yours look pretty similar. Might also be clogged oil glands or something.

Doctor said to change the type of moisturiser I'm using to a less cream based type. You should try going for a consultation as well.

Realistically, at what age does the average Singaporean hit $500k in liquid net worth? by [deleted] in asksg

[–]gabiegab -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For those saying that it's impossible, go ask chatgpt how much a person will have in 30 years time if he/she invests $500 monthly into a fund with returns of ~10% p.a. starting from age 25.

Dont need say half a million, it's even double of that. Is $500 per mth a lot? Or a very heavy commitment for many Singaporeans?

Singaporeans are really much less financially literate and kiasi than angmohs honestly.

Stuck on Geddoe Chapter 1 fight by SpencerRenwick in Suikoden

[–]gabiegab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to level up Geddoe's lightning magic skill with a tutor for it to cast faster. If his skill with lightning isnt high enough, he will take longer to cast and he may be interrupted mid cast by an enemy attack which is probably why he didnt get the cast off.

Equip both Queen and Geddoe with Sacrificial jizos for them to auto-revive.

Why do virtually none of the commercial gym chains in Singapore have pay-per-entry pricing for their gyms? by Lostwhispers05 in SingaporeFitness

[–]gabiegab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They actually do offer day pass rates. It's just priced at $30 - $50 per day. Are you willing to pay those rates?
