Nevertheless, in the process now of applying to leave. Still, 2 years was already wasted.
So are you sayimg that all Singaporean males earn less than females or just you? Statistics show that males on average still out earn women in Singapore despite 2 year NS. Just because you behkan you blame NS?

So damn dumb seriously. Can't even catch the point. The point is men would be earning even more than they did now if not for NS! Nothing to do with whether men earn more than women or not lah.

Hardly what you’d call a “head start”.

However, I’m an aggressive saver, and have been accumulating my net worth since I turned 18 by working PT jobs with long hours (and CPF!)
Surely you can give me some credit for that...
Sure you're an aggressive saver. But if you had to do NS, you wouldn't have an additional S$2.6k * 24 months = S$62,400 in your bank/CPF account. That's excluding AWS and VB.

Or just you? Or just you? Or is it just you who can't understand the point?

Wait. What makes you think you will earn more without NS? Just coz you got a c0ck and 2 balls?

So... disregarding the fact that NS also pays an allowance, can I take it that your net worth at 31 (or 32 if you wanna factor in compounding effects) is equivalent to mine now at 29?

A little embarrassing for me to consider my net worth as “high” (it’s pathetic), but the salt in your responses seem to insinuate otherwise and is rather flattering. Thanks bro!

Ok pat pat, either way I’m sorry my post triggered you.

Since you’re making more, just live and let live alright? After all I’m just a low wage slave.
If I’ve mistakenly assumed that you’re making more, I hope from my bottom of my heart that life becomes better for you in the foreign land you’re headed.

Up only! <3
