sgagainstpoverty.org/5-dollar-challenge/ so i took this challenge... for 5 days. not many people knew.... I survived alright A. TRANSPORT 1. I get free transport to work, working at SGH, I leave the station before 745 2. I got insinc rewards https://insinc.sg/ , thanks to Ryouans suggestion 3. I got free rides from Diana and David B. FOOD 1. I got a load of free coffee Daphne Nicole and claimed my free starbucks 2. I got free food Geraldine Hannah Dewi hui choo and grandpas and almost from Yeo Chee Wei 3. cooked. So I survived but 1. Ive always known that I could end this experiement 2. Social capital. friends and treats... thank you !! I felt/learnt 1. a sense of entitlement was somewhat present when sometimes i told people, EH GIVE ME FREE FOOD. yes i said that. 2. I had to overthink abt stuff.. cannot be one minute late ah! cannot anyhow go out. 3. i also felt a certain sense of insecurity if i hadnt reciprocate. Also feeling anxious abt have extra appts 4. IMMENSE joy and thanks for free things in life.. when i tap out of mrt. i go yay. when i get free food, i feel my heart leap in joy. 5. i wondered how would those who really had these limitations really feel? What i did to entertain myself 1. i finished 2 murakamis 2. slept more 3. dinners at pples homes also meant i spent more time with them no i aint taking a vow to poverty, but certainly this has been rather eyeopening. Try it!
