There are many ways to fake it if you want to look rich in Singapore. You could buy a nice car and then moonlight as a Grab driver to pay off your car loan, or blow a year's worth of savings on a Europe trip and then show it off on Instagram.

But the true indication of an affluent Singaporean is his or her status as a priority banking customer. Priority banking programmes grant high net worth customers perks such as priority queuing, a dedicated relationship manager, better interest rates, and more. Basically, you get the VIP treatment at your bank.
