(2006) Brides of year 2006

50 days of annual leave?? Wah!! Ur hubby so heng ar? company give so many days a year? Or did he accumulate? even if accumulate also VERY good leh...i also in IT line...but my company only allow us to carry forward 1 year...so at any time, i max max only 36 days

so sad!!

Dubdub...think u won need to worry abt budget for honeymoon...ur hubby so doting on u...sure $$ no prob for u...all u need to worry is how many days u can apply leave...or how many days ur hubby can take leave...

BTW, i heard of a very nice place for honeymoon...French Polynesian Island!
 


rach i m impressed..... *claps* an true blue accountant indeed.

good idea to start drawing up guest list..... it v impt, cos need to guage number of table required.... if hotel too big/small, can strike off. ok, i shall start with guest list ! *determined*

hihi puiggy, did u go look at the rom at Oaks last last weekend ?? i didnt...let me know how is it if u went ya..? thks
 
Yami...yup yup..i think guest list v impt. I also started off with guest list...so can immediately strike off any hotels that cannot accomodate such numbers...that will definitely make life easier...else later plan so much...end day realized that the hotel cannot accomodate...will be quite disappointing

Is liek this far away place where celebrity go for holidays and they have tons of exclusive islands.. wah... really nice hor. Somemore 50 days of AL... my frd is expat only 30 days.. wah your HB sure can make you a tai tai liao.. since benefit better than expat!

While dub you really fulfilling all our dreams for us.. heee.. be fun to plan such an elaborate affair!
 
my hubby like to spend quite a lot, for me, i tried to save, normally each mth i only spend about $400, the rest save up. after so many yrs of working, should not be a problem
 
Dubdub...u been working for many years already ar? how i wish i can be like u man...i just started working not too long and dumped quite a sum into studies
sad.gif
 
just went for lunch and another page got archive!

So now topic become honeymoon stuffs liao ah...

dubdub, look at all the brides here, so envy you.

So abt how much budget had u girls plan for the whole AD + honeymoon??
 
funny how all of us have borabora as our screensaver... because me too!! heee...

Bugbear.. me like blue water and sand mah.. young better indulge.. otherwise next time old liao wanna go also have to think twice..

haros ks..
welcome back!!
me plan ard 45-50k

bugbear ah..
tink we are in the same boat..
keke.. i paid ard 16k for my uni..
now paying another 4k for my CPA studies..

sighhh
 
wah dubdub you really got it made.. somemore i remember you mention that you no need to pay for anything because your in law will be paying. for us after paying this wedding debt got to save money for debt liao.. ai yoh.. headache.. at least you saved so much is for your own spares..
 
Wah!! 100K...think i don need to get married liao...

Yah lor...enjoy is good...but cos i cannot take too much sun...i will get rashes...so i doubt i will enjoy the sun and the sand lor
sad.gif
 
Wah!! ur hubby save for 4 yrs only can save so much ar?

Think i must faster jump over to government sector man!!

Ling...want to be able to save more $$, join the gvnt sector!!
happy.gif
 
dub you with TMC; monash huh.. me also.. hee...

hmm after paying finish fees.. I am almost 30k poorer all on studies.. imagine on top of that you still got so much savings to splurge 100k on the wedding. must really teach some of us hippos here how to save like that think we spend too much on food.

However I cannot spend only $400 a month because give mum that amount for house hold expense ald.. minus my own bills and basic eating stuff.. confirm cannot save like you.

racherlle.. pretty true if you think about it.. I mean I have a whole life to tour europe and japan or whatever countries best for their architecture and sightings in the future but some activites like ski-ing and stuff is best to do it in our 20s...

If middle east wasnt in it current state.. I would really want to visit egypt.. I mean behold the sights.. pyramids and spinx is really going to be gone with all this pollutions we are contributing
 
my hubby got put in FD and last time interest rate very high. for me, i bought a lot of AUD and USD, so when the rate is high, i just sell away them
 
Rachel!! me too...for me to save 25k will take ages!!

Ling...i agree leh...i also want to visit egypt...my sis did that a couple yrs ago...fantastic!!
 
dubdub,
ur in-laws paid for ur reno, hubby paid for wedding? u paid nothing, just spent on facial, go execises??!!! wat a blessed bride u are!

My cousin working at iras, FH's sister and her hubby oso working govt sector, but they dun earn that much leh...infact, their pay rise is so little! Mayb different field lor...hmmm...

Guess among here, I might be the "youngest" in the working society?! I just grad last yr april!
 
i and hubby buy in a lot of USD and AUD when the rate is low then sell it when high. that y can save so much. working not possible to save so much la
 
Wah!! so clever! but in the first place also must have the capital before being able to buy in all the USD and AUD when low right?

If based on my savings, can only afford to buy a little USD...so even when the exchange rate is high...i sell also won get to earn much...heheh...
 
ohh dub ah.. u made so screwd investments i guess.. gd for u!
happy.gif


KSbride ah.. tink we are ard the same age rite?
me 1980...
haii me working for like 3 + years already..
 
buying and selling USD can earn so much meh?You need to buy alot then can see the significant profit mah. And that also means u 2 had alot of cash in order to buy that amount of USD right?

guess i can oni pin my hope on toto liao...
lol.gif
 
bugbear, that time i think with $1,000 can open an foreign currency FD a/c liao, and the rate for AUD against sing is $0.70++. now is ard 1.235
 
haa, rachel,
me in yr of rooster. U in yr of monkey! Same as my FH..=)...
U started working after poly? Me went on for degree thats why so late then start working..

hence.........tight budget!
 
no need a lot of money lah, that time when i just start working, i only use SGD$2k to buy AUD. AUD rate only 0.70, now it went up to 1.232. i earn about 532 points
 
wow, dubdub, u so gd at investment in currency ah...when's the best time to invest, update me leh, then I shall go open an acct too ;)
 
wah...that time u already got fore-sight...me very slow and terrible in all these buying and selling...me stick to the good old work hard and save...
 
like wat my dad said, depend on income no matter how much we save also not enuff. so i learned during my spare time, now i in treasury dept. u need to take note what greenspan speech then monitor the market. now too high liao, cant buy
