Living Expense for Singles

Post by Shaun » Mon, 30 May 2005 3:57 pm

Hi all,

I am an Indian and single, would be moving to singapore in a month. I have been offered a job with a basic of abt Singapore $ 4580 + Bonus + 10 % for PF in an Investment Bank as an Executive.

I would like to know about the cost living and saving potential.
I heard housing is the expensive part.

Thanks a lot in advance for your responses

I'm no expert, but I would say that you should manage very well on that income, but if you can neg for more then do it. westerners get quite a bit more i should imagine.
If you live like the locals you can save probably 2000 a month or more, if you live like a westerner, it's not much, but you can manage without a doubt
