Are you very sure? Are you really very sure the terms and conditions are not similar? I can easily raise out a few scholarship bonds that have the same terms and conditions, can you? In fact, all local scholarship with bond have very very similar terms. Take note, I don't take into account the extra money given for those who go for student exchanges for certain scholarships. Now, show me your research that they are very uniqueOriginally posted by Gazelle:Eagle, scholarship are all unique in their own ways and if you are saying that you are bonded to a company that sponsor your studies, then how do you expect anybody to do a research about it?

Think of this, hundreds of students get local scholarships every year. Where do you think they get their information to apply for it? Every scholarship giver is competing for talent, and with so many competition, how unique do you think the terms will be?
And since so many students around Singapore can get the information easily at hand at the age of 18 years old, are you to say that you cannot find information online that many 18 years old in Singapore can find? Don't have the face not to admit it right? -

HOW DID YOU PROFITED THIRTEEN THOUSANDS SINGAPORE DOLLARS FROM YOUR TWO YEARS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM AT NUS?
I would be very interested to know where exactly is the loop hole in the terms and conditions that allows their student to over inflat their expense and proft $6,500 per year. Especially a local uni scholarship. -

ok, I shall give you a hint. Other than having paid for school fees, there are still other allowances. How much, you can go and research. Let me also spoonfeed you this piece of information: Every local scholarship with bond (exception of NUS's own internal scholarship) has allowance of the same amount.
Obviously you have not done any research at all, only waiting to be spoonfed, and you want to come to reason out things? I don't know what adjective to use on you. It is not even private information, it is public information that even local scholarships given by the government agencies has on their websites. -

Please dont think so highly of yourself, I am not begging you, I am question you.
Are you saying that throughout your 2 years at NUS, the only expense you have is tuition fee? and you have therefore profited $12,500?? (down from $13,000)
I would like to know as a singaporean studying in Singapore local university, how much expense do you get from your sponsor? -

But since you asked so politely in your last sentence, I can tell you it is an allowance of $500 a month With this information, surely you can calculate with your simple maths now
We are discussing total income from scholarship after discounting the school fees, not total expenditure... Still getting mixed up in your head? Or trying to change topic? -

at $500 per month x 24 months (2 year) your total allowance is $12,000.
NVM is you have inflation another $500 to make it $12,500.
Can I know why are they giving your $500 allowance? Are they suppose to cover some of the compulsory expenses such as books, exam fee, hostel fee, etc, or are you saying that $500 is your net profit and 100% goes into saving? -
Calculate again la... I have already given you the information, I get in 2nd year, I do honours degree. What else? 2 years indeedOriginally posted by Gazelle:Eagle,

You really never study uni before ah... exam fee indeed Already told you stay at home, hostel fee indeed Exam books indeed How much do you think books cost?
I already put out monthly expenditure, and thus is not related to the amount we are discussing now What is this called? Selective understanding? -
Eagle, $400 per month or $13.15 per day is not alot of money and it certainly cant buy you many things.Originally posted by eagle:Calculate again la... I have already given you the information, I get in 2nd year, I do honours degree. What else? 2 years indeed Simple maths

What you are tell me is that with $400 per months, that is enough to cover your monthly expenses inclusive of book, mobile phone bill, internet broadband, 3 meals, insurance, hostel fee, exam fees, transportation, dating with your gf, buying computer games, buying muscle enhancing pills etc?
Eagle, please be relistic lah. Every time I question you, you only can talk about new extra ordinary income, but you have never talk realistically about expense. And my gut feel is telling that your parents are paying all your bloody expenses and your all your "income" goes into your own pocket.
Please stop telling us that your $50,000 saving is not because of lau peh's $upport. And honestly I think you should be ashame of yourself for having to withdraw money from your father's CPF despite having so much money in the bank account (as your claim) -
Eagle,Originally posted by eagle:Chief Judge? Are you having difficulties telling us your unit and rank?
I thought you were kpkbing about people quoting old post and transfering discussion from thread to thread.
Anyway I am still awaiting your explaination on how you are able to save $10,000 during your 2yrs 4mths in the army without your lau peh's $upport. -

So you think I stayed in hostel? You think there are exam fees in uni? You think I have the time to play any computer games? I have much more hobbies than playing games. You think I bought any muscle supplements? Search around the forum again. How much do you think my phone bill is? Do you think you need books when softcopy lecture notes from lecturers and self-research from the internet are all there is needed to score As?
I'm very realistic, you are the one who has never experienced life in uni and you want to talk so much without any research on it? The way you expect one to live life, that person will never have any much savings.
So still cannot figure out the reasons, longer-term benefits and advantages of drawing out from CPF? Or do you need me to spoonfeed you the analysis one can do from things already posted in this thread? -
Well, I'm still awaiting for your rank and unit, something which many, including me, has asked you for many threads.Originally posted by Gazelle:Eagle,

And I had long in the 1st/2nd page asked you about your current savings. Not answering at all?
Anyway, I was really proud to save that $10k, really without any allowance from parents during the whole duration in NS.
