  • We went to the streets to find out what do people spend on most in a month, and how much it cost. Surprisingly we got a huge range, from $50/month to $10,000/month!

    Welcome to our new series, Hot Take! We will be heading to the streets for interviews more often, so say hi if you see us!

      I miss FAUZI to do that! Fauzi still the best Host to interview to the streets, coz he is more expresive. Come on TSL, I was asking you to Fauzi as the host, why you changes it😢
      Fauzi is kind of the salt in food, without salt in food tastes bland!

    Great new series! Zhin is really suited in this role, he doesn't judge people for what they spend on (like Lego guy) and tailors the questions to suit who he's interviewing!
    The 50 year old lady is my fav, hope to be like her some day
    Would love to see this same Hot Take done in a different area (more 'heartland'?) I can tell you guys tried to get variety (catching NSFs XD) but most people working in the CBD areas are probably in the above average income group of Singapore.
    How about those in customer service, retail, public services?

    I like the perspective of that lady who travels. I've always thought like oh when I get older I won't be able to travel much due to my age but that's not really true. Perhaps I won't be able to go all the hardcore stuff but at least I still get to travel and see the world haha. Also Zhin is an awesome host! Looking forward to more episodes 🙌

    Zhin is such a good host! Looking forward to more in this series! If I convert from my country's currency, then I spend about 640 SGD per month, but the UK is facing a Cost of Living Crisis in which we're not being paid more, even though the inflation of prices has gone up by like 14% in the last year, so everything is SO expensive here. Even a pack of strawberries will cost 6 SGD, around. A cup of coffee from a local cafe is about 4.60 SGD, a grande americano from Starbucks is 5.28 SGD. It's just ridiculous how the Government aren't helping us.
