5Cs No Longer Relevant

YOUTHS today are more educated, technology-savvy and perhaps, even well-travelled. Hence, having different aims from the older generation is a natural consequence.

Depending on their preferences in life, some would view car ownership as something that cannot be dispensed with.

Yet, others may think that money can be saved by using public transport, given that our public transport system is undergoing a major overhaul.

Additionally, money saved from car ownership can be invested in other pursuits such as indulging in hobbies that were once the preserve of the wealthy, like; collecting art or exquisite watches.

Rather than restricting ourselves to the 5Cs, why not pick from the buffet of lifestyle choices we are offered today?

After all, life is about choices.

The Editor has decided to use my article, hence, the above written by me, will appear as it is in the YouthInk section of the Straits Times; next Monday 18 Feb.
Please allow me to hear your thoughts on what has been written. I would value your 2 cents worth, thank you! (not that it will change anything, but I like to hear what my readers have to say)
