$350k for 1 child?
-
Raise a child with what you can afford not with what you canโt afford. Spend on things that are needed not wanted. I think the child will be more sensible and understanding when he/she grown up.

DesertWind,
Now I only spend $38 (school bus) + $5.50 (school fees) for my P1 girl every month
That is less than $50. She refuses to attend any enrichment classes. I don't keep track of how much I spend on food and clothing for the kids, too complicated for me to count 
Hi Tamarind,
This is comforting for me to know! Yes, that was what I initially thought. How expensive can it be? School is FREE, miscellaneous fees at most SGD30 per month. It is the enrichment classes, the most basic seems will be swimming lesson once a week, tuition perhaps at least one subject, ballet for some girls, piano lessons for others, goodness know what else.... :idea:
Yeah, no need to count food and clothing lah! Like how much is one bowl of rice and half a fish per meal for a child? How much is 3 singlets, 2 shorts and 2 uniforms every half-yearly for a fast growing child? Walamak as a bean-counter I also got fed-up!
No need to count priceless things like love, care and concern too! Ke..ke..ke... :love:
:celebrate: -
scholarshp dont need spend that much!

Imagine you spend min. $5 on your kid daily. By the time, they reach 18yrs, you would have spent ~$350k on them :!:

Not really.
$5 x 365 days = $1,825
1,825 x 18 =$32,850
But $5 a day?
Really?
Abit too little no? -
LKVM:
