Perhaps 10-12 years ago, I would feel insecure that so or so peer/acquaintance from JC working in finance or some other big consulting firm is earning more than me. No longer. Priorities change, goals change. Main aim now is to provide for family and being able to spend quality time with them, not chase the highest paying jobs or high flying roles.
No, I fully agree with you. But, when you say that you are looking to upgrade to a landed property, do you mean it as a lofty ambition, or is it happening as we speak? It's a big difference, because a landed home is going to cost at least $5.5M. Unless, you are looking at the fringes of Singapore, or some leasehold landed home, then I have no further comments.
