Phua, a 34-year-old Singaporean, was sentenced to jail for three years and 10 months after stealing S$404,000 from Maybank's safe and losing the entire sum through gambling.

Phua, a 34-year-old Singaporean, was sentenced to jail for three years and 10 months after stealing S$404,000 from Maybank's safe and losing the entire sum through gambling.

His fiancee encouraged him to confess to his wrongdoing and agreed to help him make full restitution by giving him S$404,000 in cash to return to Maybank thus reducing his sentencing as Maybank did not suffer any loss with the S$404,000 that Phua's fiancee helped to pay.

I pity fiancée having to pay off his mistake. Was it really worth it to help an remorseless gambling addict? I guess that is up to her to decide.

Always gamble with what you have (thru legal means) - control one's greed....

20 years old and enlisting soon. I have saved up a sum of $5,000 for investment and I will be saving up $1,000 every month for DCA/investing purposes. How should I go about my investing journey?

Can review my portfolio? 1) IWDA: $10,000 (invested beginning of this year,2020) DCA monthly: $1,500 2) STI ETF: $18,000 ( invested since 2018, having a loss) 3) Unit Trust: $10,000, (value: $11,000). Any suggestions?

My father is 65 years old this month and he has about $150,000 spare cash lying around. What can he do or invest in with this $150,000?

I'm 35 years old, single and first time buyer. I have $53,000 in my OA. My gross pay $1300, $299 goes to my OA monthly and I want to get a 2 room Flexi. How much loan and grants can I get and pay back monthly?

I believe in US stocks and currently have Disney and Hasbro for my 2-year-old and starting to buy for my 2-month-old. Those of you that have children, what stocks do you have for them?
