Came across this random video, wasn’t really searching for it, just one of those things that pops up while scrolling YouTube.
Got me wondering how people here actually save money, especially when everything’s so expensive these days – food, transport, rent, even the small things like bubble tea also can feel the pinch. The video mentioned some budgeting and investment tips, but honestly, nothing super new.
Just curious, what do you all actually do to save money here? Like practical, everyday stuff that actually works. Would be nice to hear some fresh ideas!

Eat at home or prepare your own bento for lunch

If cannot cook, never go to coffee shops

some small neighborhood shops are much cheaper

Nasi Lemak $1.80 + 22 cents egg = $2 ( exclude otah)

if this expensive that expensive then live singapore really cham.

i once met this malaysia boy who just come here work as security guard. met him in the evening. he said very hungry as he cannot bear to buy food here. feel very expensive. he take bus from jb to come singapore to work daily. i tell him can buy bread from super market and drink water from tap. no need go hungry.

when there is a will to save there is a way. save you pay check first before you spend then no need to control spend. in your next increment. go setup a pay as you earn account and transfer the increment to that account.
you will not feel it as the increment is addition. some how one will be able to adjust. remember in school . allowance is much lesser. still survive. why now so much more. money no enough?
