Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing what you guys have to say.

To answer the questions from the initial post:
..
(4) Do you have any kind of status at present? What is it? (UA Premier, M&M Senator etc)
No, but I have approximately 40,000 United Mileage Plus miles

(5) What is most important to you in a FFP? (Frequent upgrades on travel, priority services when flying the airline, good award redemption rates, free lounge access, etc.)
Upgrades on travel and lounge access are the most important to me.
..

Stick with UA or other FFP. Don't bother with SQ Krisflyer as miles do expire, but they do have the odd 50% award promo which is sometimes worth it. Forget about upgrades on SQ.
