How quickly should you expect to earn enough miles for your first flight if you start from scratch and don't have big ticket expenses?

How much do you spend in a year?

It doesn't have to be big ticket expenses; your monthly expenses (phone bills, groceries, Grab, public transport, movie tickets, dining out, etc.) will all add up.

A one-way Business Class ticket to Hong Kong costs 30,500 miles.

At the optimal 4 mile / dollar strategy, it'll cost $7,625 worth of spending.

That's $635 / month, or $165 lesser than the $800 minimum spend required for OCBC 365.
