160k is much higher than the median income in SG. should be able to easily afford kids uni fees no? especially if it is not overseas education? or am i grossly disconnected from reality. i assume you are mid 50s? and do u have a spouse who is working?
Singapore is in big trouble if someone with your comp does not have a comfortable life.

That’s why one should never go for civil service. If just aim to stay in a mass market condo, maybe can go for CS. If want a life of luxury, landed housing or condo in prime location, go for private. The sky’s the limit.

Is $160k a lot? Somehow, I don’t think so for a mid 50s. Anyway, I don’t pay kids’ U fees using Cpf. I don’t want them to be burdened with the debt when they start work.
