buy my own apt
Great Sense of Fulfilment & Pride!

Can’t describe to you how much of a real sense of fulfilment & pride I have!.. I finally got my own apt this year! After saving much $ from my own pocket & of course some loan from e govt :-)..

By the Singapore standard, I’m not rich btw :(

That’s also to say, I’m leading a very simple and moderate lifestyle here..I don’t own any car here (It’s considered the most expensive place on earth to own a car here->since e mid 80s) and I do take public transport to places.

Well I understood this logic long ago that cars do depreciate, but not likely on property! What’s the most important thing in life is to have a permanent ‘real’ roof over your head! That’s my greatest pride and joy, I own it!

Congrats!!

I just had to write to congratulate you on this one. As they say, “buying a house to live in is the single biggest purchase that most people will ever have to make.”

Hi, Hi!

Sorry I was distracted by some nonsense earlier :)

Anyway, yes agree..THANKS for saying that, that was the biggest decision in my life, but hey I’m not young anymore and have to start planning years ahead :)

My purchase of course is LOAN from the govt( free $$-but have to be tied down to the same home for at least 5 yrs) and bank, which I have to pay the remaining mortgage to them monthly..but still, it’s much better than renting! Owning it means the payout will eventually goes back to yourself, not to the landlord :) So that’s very satisfying to know ;)

Most of it, I see purchasing home property as a long term investment!
