I advise you to start to earn your money while schooling. when u take money from people, even your parents, is like that one. they will nag and nag at you.u...

the Bear SG

tried. but she if the kind of women that would spend alot on herself but for others. even her children or husband or employees. she is super niao.

not only i say hor, every person who know her said so too

she doesn't effing owe you a living...

it is HER money... not YOUR money..

she can burn it for all we care.. she earned the money.. NOT YOU..

you have no right to tell her what to do with HER money

Wow, you have a credit card?

I'm 27, I earn $3k per month, I'm getting married next year.... and I only have a debit card for times when I need a credit card number.

Hey, we same age!

But you marrying earlier :)

Debit card need to pay $10 a year right?

vincentchean SG

I didn't need to, but I just take because my sister also take

But $500 a month I more than sufficient leh... Plus I teach tuition and still got time to over-take subjects at NUS, and still enjoy the study life.

I really don't understand how enjoying study life = not doing part time work?

last time i was doing full-time temp work. meaning work 8-6 but collect temp pay.

i still got do some temp events work around. but this 2 months is all the camp and orientation months. so i very hard for me to do temp when they clash.

Keii SG

then can close up this forum liao what.

why need this aunt agony.

here not love prob then sch prob if not family prob.

no "wash" then why need this forum ?

Which is why some people are trying to get more info out of you, so we can give you advice or feedback. We also cannot physically go help you, give you money or talk to your mom for you. Right anot. You so defensive, kpkb like that, how to give you advice?

theres nothing wrong in spending her OWN money on herself right? i wonder what your mum would think if she saw what u typed about her.

Full time temp work =/= Part time

vincentchean SG

the Bear SG

well... you've made your decision... live with it..

s0nic SG

If you need the cash, what for go for all the camps and orientation camps? Those are just a waste of precious time.

Maybe you should also look at your expenses breakdown and see where you can cut. $1k a month is a lot. Even working full time now, my monthly expenses boils down to about $700 a month only.

i am responding to info findings ley....................

but that dude ask me dont talk dont ask advise since its family prob

Just_do_it_lah SG

Sell cars ( need 4 cars ? )

downgrade house lor... (landed property - living like beggars ?)

Keii SG

Personally, I believe your parents are obligated to help you no matter what age you are. Financially if they can afford it, and they are already giving you something, already very good. But asking for more, scratch that, EXPECTING more is crossing the line.

I don't get a single cent from my parents, I get it from my sister and she has her own family to take care of, anything else I freelance for extra lui lor. Lucky enough to have a roof over my head. But I am happy.

You already getting quite a bit, you have personal bills to pay, sure. Ever thought of planning your way through it with what you have? Instead of expecting your mom to provide so you can settle one shot?

TYING SG

i know that, but my credit card bill keep rolling over from month to month.

i have to 1 time chop off all the left over then can.

actually no need so much

You really left me speechless. If you are not holding on to a job, I don't see why should you be getting a credit card to tide your expenditure. And also, when I was in poly, my total allowance was $200 a month, I was holding a temp job, and also had 2 CCAs. End of month, just from my allowance alone, I still can save 20bucks or so?

It really depends on how you limit your spending.

hey come on, i did not tell u not to talk or ask for advise. but the way u phrase things make us think that u are just ranting here about your mum not giving u money.

eh.......... u abit dont understand my words ?

i am begging her for money like begger.

not my family is living like beggers

Junyang700 SG

Even if your mum gives you $500 a month, that makes it $300.... (After taking away bills and poly cpf, which amounts to $200.)

And I presume you actually drive to school?? That takes away transportation ... which is about $100 more.

$300 for 4 weeks is $75 a week... which is reasonable... when most uni grads are taking only $50 - $100 a week from their parents... yours is in the middle range.... If you mum gives you $1000... its actually $800 a month, akin to $200 a week... thats hell lot..

And anyway, if I am your mum, I wun care about ortho.... its not a must that she must provide you with your ortho treatment.... you want to have it.. you must save up for it. Its like going for facial treatment and then demanding your mum to pay for it.

Hope you can understand, but a uni grad would only earn 2.5k at most when they graduate.... ur mum is actually helping you adjust to your life in future...

I suggest you do what I and some other have already told you, the 3 things you need to do right now, instead of wasting your time here.

And also if you want, read through your own replies and comments. Because it's really starting to sound like you're just whining, complaining and not willing to do anything about anything.

eagle SG

Seems like my advice on looking at his own expenses breakdown went totally unnoticed by him

vincentchean SG

It really depends on how you limit your spending.

the credit card was there when i had a job. and the bill just keep rolling lor.

ok, say like i pay the bill which is expense for last month. then this month i would have been left with little. unlikely i can pay for this month bill with debit card. so i will have to use credit card again................. i know have to cut. but also need some spare cash to cut mah
