Hi,

No offence, but the problem with your question is that comfort is very dependent to individual taste and wants.
And everyone is different !

So to hijack your thread, maybe can i ask what is the lowest amount of money one needs to survive in singapore ? And how you can maximise every single dollar.
By the way, definition of survive is to be healthy, able to go to doc when needed, not to go hungry, buy basic school textbook (for kids). etc

State your assumptions please, like some have done. ie do you mean single adult, or family of 2A+2 schooling kids.

Let me start by giving my guess below :

1 Adult (living in rented premise, 1 room flat) - $500.
Basis : Rent - 120, Food & amendities - 240, transport- 30, misc-110
