I spent my money like there was no tomorrow.<br />2. I downgraded my flat (because at that time, singles were not allowed to buy anything larger than 3-room flats)<br />3. I lost some CPF-OA money listening to my colleagues and broker.<br /><br />And that's not all -- I retired myself at 51 by walking away from the one and only job/career in my life which was still on the ascend. Although, it meant having much much less money to spend, but I'm a million times happier with no care and no stress from anyone.
