If you ask me ten years ago if I could see Singapore in such a sad state, I would have laughed in your face. Or do we just pop a xanax and see everything through rose-tinted glasses as we were taught in schools to do? |
I agree to a certain extent. This is a bottomless pit. Only with more manpower then our gdp can keep going up. So more and more people competing for jobs.
In term of happiness, i am happier than the past though as I managed to grab the opportunity that comes with the recent performance by our economy (pre covid). I am now semi retired at 40. Majority of the time are spend on sending kids to school, exercise, do what i like.
