Compare job offers
Hi all, I’m in tech and lucky enough to receive 2 offers. Offer 1: Public sector, annual base salary around 80k but TC likely to hit 100k with bonus which I heard >3 months is quite common. There’s a significant sign on bonus as well Offer 2: F500, annual base salary around 70k with less than 10k stock per year and bonus capped at 3 months I know the long term prospects of the private sector are a higher ceiling and more technical growth, and that’s probably why public sector is trying to offer more upfront. In this economy and market, the stability is tempting as well and the higher amount in earlier years can be invested as well. Would love to hear opinions on which you guys would take and why.

how to make your gf contribute
hi all wanna know how to make your partner contribute to the living expenses. she's making good money but refuses to chip in on rent nor living expenses. we have been together quite long but cannot get married as our jobs are not stable. I feel overwhelmed by the expenses and the fact that I am also repaying a lot of debt at this time. Any recommendations on how to discuss finances with your partner and make her contribute? We end up having an argument whenever I bring up the subject!

$500 dividends per month
Hello, am here to seek some opinions. For context im 32M looking to get some dividends income to better diversify my portfolio. I have in general settled my high risk investments (or at least am happy with current investment amts) And am looking for a more stable fixed income / dividends / low risk investments. The goal here is whether i am able to earn on avg $500 in dividends. Plan is to start accumulating over time (dca) singapore stocks that pays dividends. And for the first year re-invest my dividends earnings. 1. which platform do u recommend? 2. is there any flaw in this plan? 3. do u recommend funds over purchasing the stocks by itself? E.g UOBAM vs UOB stocks itself 4. any current stocks u recommend and is now a good time to buy in? (Just trying to time the market a little so outlook is better, also why i’m looking to dca)

How much of a salary increase can you ask for when applying for a new job?
As mentioned in title: 5 years of relevant working experience, all in private education sector. Currently getting pay of $3.1K, plus handphone allowance of $80. Applying for govt-related/public sector jobs, asking for $3.5K. I am willing to negotiate down to $3.3K. Employment agency ask me to lower my salary. Not sure whether can trust or not... think maybe they are in hurry to get commission. I already went for 5 interviews and have received one job offer so far but the renumeration package can't be confirmed... been waiting for 3 weeks liao
