Guess not all fields are created equal. Just look at the survey from NTU. Some degree win other degree hands down s://.moe.gov.sg/-/media/files/post-secondary/ges-2020/web-publication-ntu-ges-2020.pdf |

Now i working in a US MNC, those new recruit for chemist role still only kena offered 3.5 K. I did not progress well and is only a Snr Chemist after 15 yrs (changed 3 jobs) but at least now I bring home 9 K plus. I see those new recruit take 3.5 K i also feel sad. 15 yrs ago, 3.5K was enough for me to get a car, now they take 3.5 K want buy motor also think twice |

I don't send my kids for enrichment classes. Instead i spend time teaching them on the value of money and how to do business. I don’t want my kids to be a worker or robot in future. 20 yrs ago, freshgrad chemist can earn 3.5 K, now still 3.5 K 20 yrs ago, freshgrad engineer can earn 3.5 - 4 K, now still at same range. People now flock to Computer science cause fresh grad easily get 5 K. Once RPA become the new norm, 20 yrs later, CS graduate will still be taking 5 K. |

mchan | I hope my kids can become doctors. At least the healthcare sector is booming and is quite recession proof. | |

Our Children's Future in Singapore Would you share your plans regarding your children's future in Singapore? Everywhere I turn I see parents spending time and money, furiously preparing their kids in academic, music, sports etc. Will their efforts produce results? Do they have a choice ? |
