Spend less lah! Big Grin

Let say monthly salary $1800
Each meal $6.00 x3 = $18 per day
$18 x 31 days = $558
Share a room $450
Total $ 1008
Balance can use for other expenditure

But we have only 24 hours in a day. How to work 3 jobs....................? Big Grin

At least he is still coping with ongoing wages...

What about those unemployed, retrenched, retired and seniors with zero income?

Maybe just drink only tap water throughout the day....and sleep as much as possible to forget about hunger.

Learn who to vote lah.

Control your spending..
No Starbucks.
No buffet

Don't waste food.
You are in control of yourself.

My time, when I started, I took 3 jobs.
Young full of energy and was fun too.
Day job, tuition, catering on weekends.
Learn as I work. Meet people..
Progress from there.

Maybe now PR can buy BTO. Who knows what PAP do behind?

Do your own mathematics lah! Big Grin

Everyday bring your calculator with you to office lah!

Never hire a GREEDY Maid who eats 4 bowls of rice for each meal

Won't be surprise if this happens soon! They need to keep feeding fuel to the money train. Cannot stop liao.

Normally crime rates will increase during such difficult times. From this we can roughly tell most people will resort to rob, cheat, steal, scam, smuggle and drugs to cope with rising costs to make ends meet. .. Rolleyes

Lots of scammers and cheating in the past years have shown that this is the only way out for some of us. Unless you have savings, otherwise this Govt must persist to annually create good jobs without their usual sheepish sloth.

No small wonder that petty crime rates had increased, those who cannot afford 3 square meals a day will resort to do these things, and to be housed in Changi chalet with free food and lodging...................... Big Grin

I think the best solution is still begging. At least won't end up in Changi chalet. For those who suggested cut down on spending consider this scenario. Cut from 3 meals to 2 meals to beat inflation. When the cost of living goes further up, cut from 2 meals to 1 meal. If the inflation goes up further, what else can you cut? Same goes to getting a second or third job.

You forgot te other 4 bulk expenses

20% CPF left is $360

Transport around $150

Handphone/ internet bills $60

TOTAL= $570

It is not practical to eat 2 meals or 1 meal a day............needs 3 square meals a day for energy to work................... Big Grin

Now the issues are sick where to get money and

Weekend meals don’t need money?
