Can those Singaporeans @ 55 yo and above still able to find well paid Jobs?

Any possibility average salary S$120,000 a year?

Has the retirement age moved higher?
Difficult to find decent job after 50s.
Jobs already stolen by Ftrashes.

Age is a big problem to find job in Sg even you have a good qualification.
Even worse, got to go for blue collar job.

If they are not earning at least S$5000 a month (S$60K a year) how to survive the high costs of living in Singapore?

You will lead a miserable life.
After 50, the best job for you is to become security guard. But must beware of Siao drunken AMK may confront and beat you up.

Wow..
This is much tougher than I thought for qualified Singaporeans to earn S$120,000 + 3 months bonus (total S$150,000 a year)

Looks impossible with slowing down economy and employment conditions..bleak

Provided you are born rich.
Dun say 55 yrs old, if you're in your 40s already difficult to find jobs. If found, usually must take pay cut.

Actually this is not just in Spore, but it's a worldwide problem.

More than 10 years ago, I read ST about a MNC IT regional mgr, 44yo was retrenched to set up his own Bak Chor Mee stall with an ex colleague.

Not easy for both of them..

He must be in his early 60s now, hopefully he's doing well today.

But all OECD countries have minimum wage irrespective of age

If you are chasing materialistic things, yes life is meaningless.
If you know the purpose of life, it is meaningful
