ATL has a moot point of being bored through the skull if move to LOS. Maybe cash in on hdb (or rental passive income), and do some small business to keep oneself 'alive'. Also, perhaps do some volunteer or NGO stuff.

Bros like i say, if u r a simple bachelor wif simple entertainment needs like me(one draft beer a day, not enuff learn me go 7 eleven whack singha 2-3 big cans b4 enter ur first agg stop, no LDs at all for the week, but store to haf one good LT via pick up at disco urself per week) and also can live in simple serviced apartment , 1k sgd per mth is comfortable enuff.

If u got family members or ur ego is bigger, prefer better needs to fill u up, prep at least 1,500 sgd at least to 2k sgd den. Howevwr this one is forecasted for maybe next five yrs.

For those like me who planning ahead for 20 or 30 yrs later, surely its more expensive. I would a simple bachelor can be comfortable wif 1,500 sgd can be comfortable but then ego bigger ones or got family members one, prep to accumulate up to 3k sgd per mth den lol....
