HAHA i am on the “poor” side (i live in a hdb) and having that much land is also incomprehensible to me like isnt there land scarcity in sg pls 😭😭😭😭 i have read the trilogy though and apparently the author was on that side of singapore and he said that the series was based entirely off of his childhood!!

TRILOGY??? BASED OFF HIS CHILDHOOD???? HUHH??? no way. NO WAY!! ig mayyybe possible if we're talking abt a sg a few decades ago when land was not as scarce, maybe? and the country not so overpopulated? still tho they must be rlllyyy rolling in the dough

#help forever struggling w the concept of how ppl can just have so so so much money #im always all #where'd you get all that cash from mr. moneybags #oh no mr moneybags i DONT think i want to know where you got all that cash from nvm #hhhhhhh #its so unfair that its such a struggle to afford a decent life in sg #i feel like the very common weary lifestyle here has become so normalised when it should Not be that way!!#the cost of living is just unreasonable at this point #now im curious abt the author's education HAHAH #but its true tho (how household income plays into school admissions in sg which is THE most common measure of success for any student here)#but i digress
