Before signing a contract,you should make a "balance sheet"
of outgoing versus incoming funds, like I did before moving to
SIN. Very helpful indeed.

Maybe I can give you some typical expenses :

Housing : S$ 3500-5000 for a standard appartment
(+Guarantee 2 months cash upfront)
You are banned from living in HDB flats, only for locals.

School fee : S$ 8000-10000 per child per semester
so twice a year this amount
(+Guarantee 1 semester per child cash upfront)

Energy bill : Typical S$300-500
Transport :
(How many pilots can afford a car ?)

Food:
Luxury items like TV cable :

Many things to look into ....

Anyway good luck with your decision
Please correct me if any statements are wrong
