From your posts, it looks like you don't want to pay $50 for the tutor. So be it, then walk away from it. Willing buyer, willing seller.

I recommend POSB Savers Invest for the STI ETF.

A tutor who charges premium may not have a 'premium' kind of attitude. What I need is a dedicated and patient tutor.
