xavier1979 SG Yang er fang lao (Having kids to safeguard your retirement) is kind of an old concept. So many children don’t take care of their parents these days.
No9 SG yup, sad but true. we can raise our kids, but we can only hope they will care of us when we are old. To me, its not so much of financial support, but more for the company of our loved ones.
