hi all,

not sure this is the correct section to ask for advise

anyway i plan to buy a house next year possible.hope all financial sifu can give some advise.

My status:
-currently salary is 4k++ (before tax and epf),
-will finish my car loan somewhere end of next year.
-savings of around 40k now.
-do not have much in kwsp 2nd account, only around 10k or so.
-single

i am aiming to buy a double storey house, maybe around 300k to 400k, after i finish my car loan.

is it advisable to do so? should i wait longer like another year or so and have more savings first?

will the house price increase like mad if i dont decided to buy earlier?

how much do i need to chunk out for house loan every month?

should i invest my money first and think about buying house later?

pls help

my love life

iameternal — Wed, 22 Aug 2012 01:14:33 +0800

hihi,

for starter i m at my 30s, currently single.

i am the type of guy who is abit on the quiet side. not that i have never got any gf b4, just that always ended up breaking up... some of my fren (actually only close fren) flag me as someone who is not serious in any relationship, not to the extent of playboy though...

i have few relationship b4, actually 90% of them was ended up by me.... without any particular reason... not that i broke up because i plan to see other pretty girl... just i always feel that not having any commitment will be the best..

me n my ex (last one, she is the same age as me) has been dating for almost 1 year before i throw the "divorce paper" again..

she went to sg for work last time because she wanted to earn more money, then when she come back we would ended up in hotel n doing those stuff together. ( we never have sex though)

she was angry with me when i decided to break up with her, n i also felt sorry for doing those things to her..months back i sms her if we can reconcile and she say is ok to meet up when she is free.. but i ended up nvr call her at all...

really what is wrong with me? will i be treating all the girls in the future this way n ended up the same?

satria neo r3 rim

iameternal — Tue, 21 Aug 2012 12:51:27 +0800

Hihi,

I own a satria neo 1.6manual (non-cps).

I was thinking of changing my rim + tires. Any recommendation?

My current tire n rim is not stock though... it is 205/45/17 , i have also change my suspension to hotbits n lower my ride with it (that was like 2 years back i guess....)

I have some problem as follow, just recently thought of maybe solving or improving it..hope all can help..(hope is not too late

Past events of my car...

- rear tire touching the body when cornering, i have make a bad decision that time ( around 2 years back)by having the workshop cutting the inner part of the car body to solve the problem

- my rear wheel clearance to the body seem to be unbalance for both side (for example one side can put in one finger and the other is actually more), i try to solve this by adjusting the suspension tigher/lower (with hotbits suspension) at one side to make it even (come to think of it not a very good idea though...), anyone got same problem before?

-the 17inch wheel seem heavy....accelearation seems to be slower than last time...my fren keep asking me y i change it to 17... i say because it look nice... haiz....

- brake systems seems deteriorating after changing the pad (it is ori pad woh...why huh... also i tink 2 years back), last time workshop got say one of my rear brake system got problem...

anyway, now i thought of changing to a much lighter rim + a good tire (thinking of r3 16in, or 15 inch), re-adjust the suspension higher ( and even at all wheels) and having proton to check my brake system, anyone got any suggestion or comment?

right now proton r3 got promotion as below, think is worth it? or is there other better rim + tire?
