Singapore - one of the richest countries in the world with low living standard
Many people think Singapore is one of the richest countries in the world, however, many do not know that it has very low standard of living and low purchasing power. To enjoy the same lifestyle you have back in the States, you will have to folk out probably 3 times more of your money. There are many places in emerging nations becoming like Singapore, getting richer but declining quality of life due to inflation.
America has probably become one of the poorest countries (if measured based on net debt), however, its standard of living is still one of the highest. Which place will you choose to be in the next 30 years? |

wtf are you talking about? No country has made more effort to improve its citizens standards of living than Singapore. It is #1 in Asia for standard of living.

I won't be in the USA. It's only going to get worse there. The police state it will be within the next 10 years is going to be simply out of control.
I'll take my chances in Asia. |

Well........ of course, incomes and GDP per capita are higher in the US, UK, Europe and so on. The point is that the emerging markets personal incomes, GDPs are on the rise.
When China becomes the number 1 by GDP, personal incomes will still be lower than people in the US, UK, and so on. It takes a lot longer for GDP per capita to rise. As for the US standard of living, well in order to be a sustainable economy (ie fix the deficit and the national debt) there has to be a serious re-adjustment and it will take time but its very much likely that in coming decades there will be less of a sharp distinction in standard of living between western economies and emerging markets as a global rebalancing takes place. Right now, UK, US, parts of Europe are not sustainable.

The reason is simply because it is very self sufficient and although it doesnt provide all of its own resources, it has the capability to do so.

The US! Singapore is an amazing island with a real cross section of culture and cuisine BUT the government and laws are strict! Drugs, littering, and other "offenses" are punished severely (sometimes by death). No thanks!!

For me the problem with other countries is language ... They have a different word for everything.
