    Default Is the 5Cs within reach in Singapore?

    I think it is getting more and more difficult for the young ones to beable to afford anything.

    Everything is so expensive, now HDB going for as high as 900K - it is hard to imagine what will become of our next generation?

    i think a better question is perhaps whether 5Cs still applicable in today's context as a measurement of success..

    i think 5c are easily attainable at a young age these days but it's a matter whether it's maintable as many young successful people tends to want to lead a luxury lifestyle.

    Yes, I think there are many rich people in Singapore. The number of less affluent are in larger numbers though. It's getting really tough to afford a condo especially when a not so good condo can already easily cost 1M. Of course, if we look at the really small studio condos, those are more affordable but I seriously wouldn't want to consider staying there.

    that's because as we earn more, we expect more luxury and comfort in life and then we spend more lor. earn less spend less.
