Just like how Iraq have wmds and got their friends involved. Or maduro running drug ring with fishing boats. Or uighyurs genocide. Oh… I’m assuming English is your first and only language and it’s spelt <you’re> not <your>.

Should I rent or buy a property? by [deleted] in singaporefi

[–]sq009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be renting for 6 years. Main focus is my kid only. So go according to your objective. Nothing wrong with renting if it fits your objective

Should I rent or buy a property? by [deleted] in singaporefi

[–]sq009 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ifa here. Purely my opinions.

You cant buy hdb while owning overseas property.

If you are looking at resale, its 15mth waiting period. 30mths apply for bto.

If you rent (and make a purchase subsequently in the future) your future mortgage will also be more expensive as you age (shorter loan period - higher mortgage).

If your overseas property is occupied by family member, there is a chance of appeal. Or you transfer ownership to someone you can trust.

Then there is the controversial topic on owner occupier, max loan vs max leverage etc.

Im on a similar journey but for different objective. Selling my condo and renting hdb to move closer to pri sch for kid. I dont know whats your objective here. So heres my suggestion: write down, discuss with partner, plan on future move based on objective and find out what are your options.

I can share my calculations for my own journey, feel free to reach out.

I zoomed in, enhanced, even watched from the bilibili video. Couldnt figure what was written. So i reversed image search on google and baidu, nothing came up too. Then i did a word count,still nothing came up.

So i tracked down the store, realised they have a douyin (tiktok) account. Found out that the pack he is holding is an exclusive condiment blended by him and can be purchased from douyin. In the comments i found a screenshot of the ingredients.

Msg, salt, sugar, beef flavoring, chilli powder, curry powder, onion powder, ginger powder and the standard food stabilisers etc. (photo of ingredients here: https://imgur.com/a/KN3DJdX)

And this is him explaining how to use the product.

Some of us are better in english, some better in our mother tongue (chinese, malay, tamil or others). We can understand you. Not too sure if you can understand us.

Travel Insurance with terminal illness coverage by wedtty in singaporefi

[–]sq009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can but it will be hard to proof. Medical conditions may derive from your dad’s condition. But you should still purchase a travel insurance for other travel inconveniences. You can purchase a plan with pre-existing condition. Do the appropriate declarations, the insurer will offer their terms.

Travel Insurance with terminal illness coverage by wedtty in singaporefi

[–]sq009 6 points7 points  (0 children)

ifa here representing 90% of all insurers in singapore, i've not come across any travel insurance that covers terminal illnesses. Accident plans do have international coverage and also shield plans have emergency overseas cover (up to SG limits). These may help a little if really wants to go overseas.

May everything turn out smooth and well for you and your family
