I'd say 4k combined income is a good gauge for husband+wife+3 kids, order in food once a week, vacation once a year, shopping only for essentials, kids in preschool.

If you want good comfort for quarterly splurges (300-1k), order food 2-3x a week, vacation twice a year - then at least 12k would be your gauge.

Aiming for a combined income of around SGD 8,000 per month should give a couple a pretty comfortable life in Singapore without going overboard. there are families living below $2000.....

Simple, budget, thrifty living and go for a yearly overseas tour.

When my wife n I got married, we didn't even have a TV 📺. Don't think too much about money

Combined about min $8k should be ok....
