These are comfort food that I will never let go of when I retire 🤗 For your info, in honolulu, can get all those you mention. But no rojak. if i dont have children, i would be gone long ago. Get one of the top floor most prestigious condos in Honolulu, 1500sft. max luxury for usd 2 mil. Same thing will cost easily double in stupid sinkieland. buy a 911 turbo for driving round downtown and a Mercy G63 for camping and a Harley Lowrider for coastal rides. No need to wear helmet, just sunglasses can ride and feel the wind in your hair. can also drive or ride to Northshore area to enjoy the waves and nature. moreover it is a polynesian place. I was once thought to be a local in hawaii when one old ang moh guy ask me for directions right outside ala moana center. kNN, the more i think, the more i feel like a failure in SG 😥😢☹️🥺😕 Edited October 22, 2021 by Throttle2 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hawaii is under some Asian countries, can still consider..... Edited October 22, 2021 by Starry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

awhtc 6th Gear October 22, 2021 Share October 22, 2021 It will feel very odd for me to eat Singapore/Malaysia food in Hawaii. E.g. After a plate of chicken rice, I may want to order Chendol or ice Cheng Tng to cool down. It is hard to find this combination of local food in Hawaii where such local dishes and refreshments are limited and expensive. There is also always a bit of racism in a western country, particularly after this Covid exploded in China. I prefer Johor for retirement where it is just next to Singapore and the cost of living is only 1/3 to 1/2 of Singapore's. There is the availability of delicious tropical fruits like durian and magosteen there and the ability to drive even to Thailand and beyond. Language and culture are very similar to Singapore. As long as my job is not too stressful, I will continue working until 60 years old but I will gradually wind down from my early 50s when I become financially independent. Then I intend to take more frequent breaks and spend on the things I like without worrying about inflation as I still have my regular income and bonuses. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mersaylee Supersonic October 22, 2021 Share October 22, 2021 Love aloha... IF if ah... IF i were to retire there in Oahu...I'd choose Northshore over waikiki...a real place to relac...feel the wind from head to toe...sip pina colada, margarita, long Island teh...stroll along silky white sandy beaches...mostly board surfers there...nobody care what you wear or don't wear at all...not crowded unlike tourists all over at whole of honalulu Oh, btw, do not venture too far out towards the east side of waikiki beach...it's tanjong beach club X xxx times there...and watch your karcheng when you suntan there...many coconuts on the trees, even more bananas on the beach 😅 No need for a car there...moped limited to 30kph (or was it 30mph?) is a good get around...don't even need driving or riding licence becos usd is the licence 😁 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttle2 Supersonic October 22, 2021 Share October 22, 2021 (edited) Northshore is a more localized area. (Like Sembawang) The beaches are natural and waves are the highest for the surf gods. Waikiki is for the tourist and foreigners (Like Orchard ) Totally man made, only for surfing beginners. Edited October 22, 2021 by Throttle2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
