24yo SG uni student with no savings says he feels “like giving up studying coz it’s so much stress and job market gives me depression”A 24-year-old university student took to social media to express his concerns about the challenging job market that awaits him after graduation.
“I feel like struggling like this in SG is not worth it and is exhausting. After studying so much, become a phv or delivery man. Bruh, what’s the point, man.” One Redditor said, “This is from my direct experience: Whatever you are feeling now, it is temporary. That’s the nature of our emotions. There are times when everything looks hopeless and you feel nothing but despair.I assure you, however bad it feels, it really isn’t the case. Appreciate the small things. Live one moment at a time. Stick with it. Don’t give up.”
Now I’m 31, paying for my own degree at a private university and making 3.9k. I accept my fate; I’m not the super smart or outstanding worker. But this salary is still able to support my life at this point.”Another shared, “Start small. Don’t expect too much from your first job, When I was your age, my pay was $1700 . Now I earn $4700 from my technician job .
