Yeap and you also get "expat" status too

If you are single maybe. Forget saving if you have kids and have to pay for private school. Just had an MD come back from there.

@GS1 public schools in sg are perfectly fine, unlike in the UK

I have a lot of student debt from law school. I’ve refinanced a couple of times and received the best fixed rate available, but I’ve seen others refinance with a variable rate which of course is lower. I’ve read some other comments of people refinancing at a super low variable rate....isn’t this risky? Of course I am afraid of going variable and then the interest rates going up a lot. Am I missing something?
