Can you really make a living doing what you love in Singapore?
For Rowena See, theatre is her passion, but teaching accounts for around 70% of her income. The remaining 30% comes from theatre work.
And here's the surprising part: landing more than two theatre projects in a year can already feel like an amazing year for her.
Meanwhile, Fiona Chua balances modelling, acting and other creative jobs, planning her finances around an unpredictable stream of opportunities.
So what does financial stability actually look like when your dream career doesn't come with a fixed salary?
In this episode of Wise & Shine, Adrian Tan and Faith Choo sit down with Rowena and Fiona to uncover the realities of building a creative career in Singapore.
From taking on multiple jobs and managing irregular income to developing new skills and creating their own opportunities, they share what it really takes to keep pursuing the arts.
Because passion may be what gets you started, but financial planning is part of what keeps you going.
Would you give up a stable salary to pursue something you love?
