2nd HOME in Singapore



Correct me if I am wrong, my understanding of HDB rule is the local can purchase second residential property after serving 5 years of minimum occupation period for the HDB flat.
 

After residing in the HDB flat for more than 4 years, wild dream began to appear in my mind. I am eyeing for HDB maisonette around my area. The 2 storey flat looks so spacious that capture my heart. After some renovation work, the flat must be as comfortable as double storey landed property. For your information, some HDB maisonette is at level 1 and 2. Those owners even convert the grassland in front of their flat to be their own garden with plants and swing as well as laundry.


On the other hand, many people out there might be thinking of purchasing private condo after serving minimum occupation for the HDB flat which is quite different from my wild dream. Some of them even sold off the existing HDB flat in order to fund for the down payment of the private condo. I even saw some of the people upgrade to DBSS or EC instead.
 
 
What will be your choice and why?

Branded Bag Cleaning Service

R ecently, my brother commented that my Prada bag looks like a dumpster bag and no one will steal it since people thought that it is not authentic. I have been using this bag for 6 years and I think I am used to the dirty sights, that's why I don't really mind the dirty issue. Few years back I have tried to wash it with soap powder but those black patches are still there, doesn't really help. I am aware that there are shops that offer bag cleaning service but they charged an exorbitant price. As a result, I have been putting aside the cleaning task for years. Two weeks ago, I finally decided to give it a try. So, I went down to the shop and asked for a quotation. To my little surprise, they quoted me S$140. After some bargain, I paid S$120 for the cleaning service. The shop is located in a mall and therefore they follow normal mall operation hours. The shop accepts credit cards or NETS. The cleaning service takes not more than 10 days. I received SMS before 10 days due ...

Diaper

S$37.95 for 2. (Price on discount taken from NTUC Fairprice) Calculation in RM:- 37.95 / 2 X 3 = RM56.93 each RM29.99  each. (Price on discount taken from Tesco in KSL, Johor Bahru) The quality for both are good, material is soft and comfortable. Besides, it can absorb more urine compared to other cheaper brand, reduce the hassle of keep changing diaper or cleaning up the overflow.   The drawback to buy from JB is it is not easy to carry back if you travel by MRT/bus since it is quite heavy.
