Has Singapore’s nightlife reached the point of no return? Are the $300 drinks at rooftop bars no longer worth it for Gen Zs? Should cyclists pay mandatory road tax?In today’s podcast, we take a deep dive into two trending topics: the gradual decline of Singapore’s once-vibrant nightlife and the rising tension between cyclists and pedestrians in Singapore.We first take a look at why Singapore clubs, including icons like Zouk, MARQUEE and Drip, are starting to lose their appeal to Singaporean Gen Zs and millennials. We explore the key reasons behind this changing trend, including the expensive drinks, health concerns from staying up late at night, the negative effects of alcohol consumption, and the lockdown period during the COVID-19 pandemic.Then, we participate in the ongoing debate about "entitled" cyclists in Singapore and why recklessly disregarding cycling rules, especially when cycling on roads and pedestrian walkways, is a huge safety concern that needs to be addressed quickly, like how license plates can be mandated for all bicycles by Singapore’s Land Transport Authority (LTA) to ensure accountability and encourage responsible cycling.Stack more apps to save more on CAST.SG, (http://cast.sg/) the all-in-one app marketplace today: https://cast.singtel.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=castsg-smf&utm_content=castsg-landing&utm_id=tdk-skitEnjoy an additional 10% discount on the public rate for group registration to Race Inspired!2025, using the Discount Code ‘TDKBuddy’—valid until 20 March 2025.

What is a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) and why do all working adults need it ASAP? If both spouses die simultaneously without writing a will, whose parents will the assets be distributed to? Can money and inheritance really tear apart a “perfect”, loving family?In today’s podcast, we take a deep dive into why you NEED an LPA as a working adult and why it is a key component of retirement planning, financial planning and estate planning. We also share our own take on a viewer’s dilemma about who to appoint as the donee and executor of her LPA and will—her older child, who has different values when it comes to money, or her younger child, who tends to be more reliable but lacks financial knowledge. We discuss some of the key considerations, including the pressure it places on the donee to manage the inheritance prudently, the effects money could have on relationships between family members, and the option to distribute the LPA to both parties to minimise conflict.What would you do if you were the donor? Share your thoughts in the comments section below! 🧠LPA definition from HealthHub: A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows you to appoint someone you trust to make decisions and act on your behalf if you lose the mental ability or mental capacity to make decisions for yourself, like in the event of a stroke, mental illness or accident. It gives you and your loved ones certainty and peace of mind.#lastingpowerofattorney #lpa #willwriting #wills #trusts #financialplanning #estateplanning #legacyplanning #retirementplanning #personalfinance #singapore #dailyketchup #trending
