In part two of Melvin’s catch-up with The Weeblings, Sara and Aaron talk about how they tackle the high cost of living in Singapore, the significant challenges of saving for a house down payment, and the pervasive influence of social media on financial habits, highlighting how these factors shape their investment strategies.
Topics include breaking down miles versus cashback, giving tips on using cards like the DBS Women’s World Card and UOB Preferred Platinum Visa. Sara shares valuable tips on maximising rewards, managing multiple credit cards, and, crucially, avoiding the pitfalls of credit card debt.
The Weeblings address the challenges of the competition for BTO flats, and the impact of rising salaries on small businesses. They also discuss the cooling measures affecting property investments and the shift in housing plans among young Singaporeans, including preferences between BTO and resale flats. More on this concluding episode!
