Just started working again after further post-graduate education.
Age: 28 (expat) Income: SGD300,000 (finance) Savings: SGD400,000 Inheritance: over SGD10MM (half of parents' net worth) Nobody at my office here in Singapore knows that I come from a fairly affluent family at home. Would never discuss/wear anything that would suggest it. Educational background is top-tier, but so is that of many of my colleagues, including the Singaporeans. Should I live it up and leave my financial future to my parents, or should I continue saving everything and being discreet? |
You are rich. Make a difference to the world. There are billions of homeless, hungry, poor people and children. What's your purpose on this earth? Think.
