Beating inflation in Singapore | Retire or relocate to JB? 😳

Рет қаралды 21,769

22 күн бұрын

Been thinking about relocating to JB, Malaysia. This may have sounded incredulous 10-15 years ago, but with the costs and pressures of living in Singapore these days, I’m seriously considering it as a viable option.
JB is well-developed and well-connected, offers great housing options and is just a train ride away from SG. All I’m missing is a feasible business that I can operate while living in JB 😂 In the far future, maybe!
What’s your take?

Basically if one plans to make enough money in SG & retire in Msia that might be workable. But if a Sporean plans to live in Msia & work there then good luck. Just take a waiter as an example. Let’s just simplify & say in SG a waiter earns S$2000. That’s more than RM6000. No restoran or hotel in Msia will pay a waiter RM6000. F&B Manager maybe but not waiter. The way most Sporeans are used to comfortable lifestyle, with a Msian salary i say good luck maintaining that lifestyle.

If you don't buy cooked food from outside, then the cost is about the same everywhere. For example, eggs, rice, noodle, milk are not cheaper in a village. It is when you hire contractors to fix your house that the cost is different. But the more competent people don't provide their services in cheaper towns, so you pay less for something that likely sucks. It will then depend on your tolerance of competence/incompetence. Try live in various places in Malaysia for a few decades, then you will notice this. * 60% of my life has been spent in Malaysia, and I am retired - in Malaysia.

Singapore is the most expensive country to live in be it is housings,cars,foods,entertainments,etc. I grieve for our youngsters who had to spend so much money to enjoys life after a hard day work. Yes when we are young we live to eat versus eat to live. Like me I love eating when I was young and all my colleagues and relatives know I am a big eater and they will pile all the foods they cannot eat on my table to finish for them during wedding dinners. I had since eat only one meals on most days and had not eaten crabs for more than thirty years and also fishes and durians I did this because I don't to waste money on food since it not my priority now. Result I never been to hospital or dentist ever since I am in my twenties until today. Ever since I retired at sixty-five I never see a doctor until today y. I am now w nearly seventy years old.
