Reno is " overrated "

how much time you spend at home enjoy so call " cosy new reno " ?

WFH now aday? Unless you are " own boss " end of the day you still need to go office meet clients, boss , CEO meetings etc

sometimes Not every work can so call " WFH " settle must face to face settle in physical meeting room.

Side note also due to " RETI " SG another big revenue come from these office rentals etc.


But I have to respect this couple interesting how they settle themselves since current flat under renovation

- stay at relative place first?
- stay in motel? or hotel ?
how their existing things go ? rent a storage room put?
or majority of the existing stuffs threw away?

I will NOT waste time doing this aka reno.
I rather spend time doing other things.

next now a days Reno works is " subjective " also the materials now a days

Not lasting compare to last time. EPIC Is I noticed people do Reno , just after few months or year some parts tear off etc

again you have to move your stuffs, waste time doing these.

Nowadays people like to knock down all the walls. Looks nice but difficult to cool with aircon. Electric bill through the roof.

It is like buying this stock and that with admin charges gone. For those who spend big money on reno when they keep shifting, that $100k a few times is much more than Admin fees.

if due to unforseen circumstances hv to return to hdb, need to restore back reno like hacked walls?

At least this house is better than Garang guni's house

Jac's house after renovation lacks 3 AREAS of home design

He just anyhow renovate without using brains
