All those studies showing financial incentives don't work are pathetic.
Am I going to go for a kid because I get a free stroller and 10 free GP visit?

Probably the same people advocating for degrowth to fight climate change

I really hope this new SG initiative work a little because otherwise people will criticize financial incentives even more when the clear problem is that the adequate threshold has not been reached

Give 500k per child tmr and within 2y your TFR is way above 2.1

A Singaporean citizen is worth 1m$ today in terms of lifelong taxes (pension excluded completely)

This doesn't count all the value of the work produced by said citizen over his lifetime which also benefit the country

And it's in the case of Singapore being a very low tax country

People will eventually come to this view

Before you got maybe 200k of taxes per citizen and it cost you roughly zero

Now you have to pay 500k to get 1m

(Good opportunity to get into NQ imo on this retarded sell off)

Probably withstand one or two drone wave

Japanese hike coming, Korea = memories so not worth looking at them for now; or some very niche names

But NQ should carry on

Even 5.6 ultra is retarded tbh

Missing the forest for the trees most of the time

Fable is in a league of its own

5.6 is great at implementing well written specs

Decision making and navigating complexity are still pretty low
