Wife, 42, earns $100k pa. Me, 45, earns $90k pa.
We live in a condo along Upper Bukit Timah (Downtown Line 2). After selling our
HDB flat, we make some profit and bought the condo at $600k in 2006. It is now worth $1.3m.
Even though we are not as rich as those earning $250k pa, we are contented as we can still afford to live in a nice condo with gym and pool.
We are luckier than 85% of Singapore residents who have to live in public housing (
HDB).
For those still living in public housing, don't give up, you can do it. Work harder and your dream to upgrade to a condo will come true. All the best.
