      Anyway, I think $350k in just a figure, but i do wonder where is the starting and ending of the calculation. or is it just the figure for schooling and enrichment and tuition for how many years?



      It takes a village to raise a child… So raising a child is PRICELESS!

                think $350k is just reasonable…no excessive enrichment (maybe just swimming and another enrichment that doesn’t cost more than $200 a mth), normal kindergarten (not those few $k a mth kind), normal food, not restaurant with abalone shark fin frequently, normal clothings, not branded (i know some children ONLY wear branded), local UNI education not overseas, etc.

                      Only DILs will suffer? Son-ILs won't? If so, you better ensure your son doesn't go anywhere near their dds too! 👅
