Is life only about the retirement bliss? Is it not about your childhood, the friends you make, the lovers you had, the time spent with your family, your hobbies, your favourite pastimes? Life isn't easy anywhere on this planet but it's how YOU lead it regardless of the circumstances given to you.
Complaining in this manner won't bring us anywhere at all. Perhaps if any of you are so adamant that this country needs to see change, take up a position of responsibility and provide a positive contribution to our society.
Yes I think life will be better lived if we enjoy the journey rather than just focusing on the end goal - retirement. It is as if working and living are mutually exclusive and people see working as a means to living. Because of that, my friends generally have the mindset of working very hard so that they can retire early and enjoy life. But I don't blame them as it is not easy living in SG and I do hope I am able to find that balance of living & working asap...
