i've always dreamt of living in Singapore. how much money would i need to live there comfortably like upper middle class type of lifestyle? i want to raise kids there one day. $100k singapore dollars? 200k? i dont want them to feel like they are poor like i was growing up. Also how would immigration work? Currently a Canadian citizen.

i’m an expat who makes $18k/mo living alone, and i feel like that’s adequate. that said, i also know locals who make $4k/mo and they also feel that’s adequate.
it’s possible to make any salary work here, it just depends on what kind of lifestyle you’re looking for. if you want to live in a condo and go to cafes, bars, and restaurants you’re going to need to earn significantly more than if you’re fine living in government housing and eating at hawker centers everyday.
This. It really depends on your lifestyle.
If you want kids, add easily $4-5K a month SGD to your expenses
This. Sex is one of the most expensive things u can do here. It ranks House. Car. Sex.
You mean kids right? Sex isn't that bad in price. A wife on the other hand.. use the other hand instead.
