For whatever reason that guy think that he wants 4 kids..... it
is now too late to do anything, you can't go kill your children now
to save cost could you 


Therefore there is only 1 thing the guy COULD
do..... that is to save cost
or make do......
Everything is getting expensive..... it is not only affecting
those with $5K.... it is also affecting most of us with only
$2K.
So what does most of us.... or at least those with
common sense, Do
Didn't we cut cost by buying less and
look for cheaper stuff at another location... JB being a
S'porean fav
... If you can't
afford a SONY LCD TV.... then a less branded AKIRA LCD would
have to do...... or like me, still use CRT TV.
SOME PPL here would like to tell you that using your common
sense is ''following" Govt propaganda.... and that you should
just not do as you are told, or if not, you are just a
lackey. But those ppl FORGET to inform you that
NOBODY WOULD BE PAYING YOUR
BILLS FOR YOU.
If cost cutting and changing brands of product you used
to get, sounds too ''Pro Govt" to you..... feel free to keep buying
the more expensive stuff..... you may want to even put a
downpayment for that Condo you think you could afford..... can't do
without a CAR (MPV/SUV) could you....
or how about that mth long holiday in
Europe you always wanted.... There's always credit cards and bank
loan.... 
But do remember...... even if the Opps WIN the election and PAP close down
shop 3.5yrs from now...... IT WOULD STILL BE
YOU WHO WILL PAY YOUR OWN BILLS..... So do keep up those
Anti-PAP stand, Gods know that S'pore would need ppl to keep the
'buying' going, and I for one, will keep my COMMON
SENSE and buy things base on what I can afford...... so go
ahead and call me a lackey 
I think you are a realist and I for one don't think that common
sense is a bad thing.
What I do feel is that the wealth distribution/wage gap is too
big. Its too capitalistic.... the govt policies should tax the rich
abit more and distribute it to the lower masses.
According to a "source" she invests in property alot. Its more
profitable to invest in SG than in AUS and cheaper too. Its easier
to start investing in AUS but you don't make as much. The downside
is that its very hard to break into the property market in SG. In
other words the rich get very rich and the poor stay poor.
