Investing in silver and the magic of community

Synopsis: Every first and third Monday of the month, get a headstart in your personal finance and career with The Straits Times.

How do we find a community of our own despite the pains of adulting and why is it so important for us to feel belonged?

In this episode, Singaporean musician Aarika Lee tells host See Kai Wen her inspiration and journey in starting the viral community choir Sing Song Social Club, which has grown from 30 to 400 participants in less than two years. 

Silver enjoyed a record rally in 2025 but crashed early in 2026. Is it still a good investment?

In this episode, ST business correspondent Sue-Ann Tan looks at the shine of silver with guests – ST commodities journalist Timothy Goh and CMC Markets director of business development Daphne Tan.
