      Hi,


      It is clear to me that developed countries belong to the 'have material & $' category and developing countries belong to 'have no enough material and $'

      What is the line to categorise have $ and have not $ in Singapore (developed country)?

      Can we consider ourselves who can spend time in forum like this the 'have' category? Or 'have but not enough' category? Then is there 'have enough' category?
      :? There is also 'neither here nor there' category (mostly have migrated to a 'have plenty' category/countries but not sure have enough or not enough)

      人比人, 气死人!

      Having the right values will do. The rest is up to you and me to make the best out of our lives.

        I like IKEA's slogan, \"You don't have to be rich to be clever\".
        Sometimes, slogan will remain as slogan. 😄

        I dunno but can we say that it is easier for the rich to be clever ?

            You mean man or woman?

            Man - Yes cos he will have many choices since there will be some flinging themselves at him if they eye his riches. And being rich, funding the wedding is never an issue.

            Woman - No...case in point....LKY's daughter. 👅 Rich then very well-educated(per the discussion in this thread), overqualified sometimes, the pool of suitable men reduces in Singapore so must \"shop\" globally...takes longer, must pay \"shipping charges\"(all the travelling to date) too or ships self over eventually.... :lol:

              $150 / hr, a little steep for group tuition, one to one would sound reasonable, but if you pay such fee, you have the right to be very demanding.


              One to one by good current school teacher can range from 40+ to 130+ (going to tuition centre type, not home tuition).

              In any case, parents should understand kids work and parents should try to have more contact time with the tutor to uncover if the tutor is bullshitting to be sure if you are spending your money worth, regardless of the price. Expensive may / may not be good, cheap may not be no good.

              I still remember in my days, I had tuition from Sec 2 (when my result start to screwup) to Sec 4 at this home of the tutor at $50 flat (consider very cheap also at my time) for Maths, Add Maths, Chemistry and Physics in a group of 20+ students. When I was first day there, I was shock to find my school's top student also there. Later I find a few top school's students also there. His fee is cheap, his class is so interesting that I never hesitate to go tuition, :lol:
