Below average singaporean pay???

[Maz0608]

Not all who drive a Korean or Chinese car are poor.

And not all who drive a Continental or Sports car are earning big money.

 

At least those driving a continental or sports car are giving others the impression that they are rich.

And that really matters to a lot of ppl.

TS is engineer and is doing ok

[Rickster]

those who make alot, tend to be more "visible"....have flashier cars, have no qualms about showing off their earning prowess....so it may "seem" like there's alot of them.

 

May I add... its not that those that makes alot, its those that make just about enough to buy an entry level luxury car or condo that tries to show off the most.

 

We can easily see many in MCF alrdy

Talking about me again...............sian always suan me :(

[Torquey]

for someone struggling to survive its hard to understand tht, money isnt everything happiness is,.........unless you can detach yourself from the obsession with material possessions.

 

but having said that, there are 2 extreme cases namely the pitiful destitute who are outcast by society and the filthy rich who will never know what being poor feels like.

No la... where got mention ur name anywhere?

[Tigershark1976]

I read that the avg sporean pay is about $35-$40k p.a.

 

I know pple who are making 3-4 times that amount yearly but are always in debt or living on credit.

 

It all boils down to managing your finances i guess

 

 

never believe in statis tic... the statistic only show people what they want to show... for example, the gov can tell u that the median salary of the nation is 40K per year, but the data is coming from the income tax dept where only people above 30K per year is taxable...

[Jay1980]

Don't worry. I'm older than you and I'm earning 2K monthly .

 

Hope, this makes you feel better .

 

Have a nice day.

 

Regards,

 

Wow, you make my day

haha

[Jay1980]

 

depend which level n experience..also got pay scale one..as high as senior engineer..as low as what u say haha..

 

but it's 1 job that cannot go hungry or go rich one..but also wont tio pok no matter what economy one..lol

 

Hmmmz,

You are right in some way la, at least car fully paid liao, every month still got some spare cash left for my fitness first and massage package, haha, damn, i really know how to enjoy life.

 

Earn $1, spent $3.

 

s--t

[Estrangable]

After reading so many threads in MCF, i found that, there seems like a lot of big earner here.

Seems like i belongs to the super low income group here

haha

By the way i'm 30 and my annual income only hit slightly above 40k.

 

But i see so many forumer saying they earning big bucks and only in their 20s.. think i must buy more 4D and Toto from now onwards liao

 

Haha

 

man compare man, gas dead man.

 

anyway ard 40k for 30 years old is freaking pathetic....my starting pay when i graduated is already close to 50

With Greater Pay comes Greater Responsibility....

 

Btw, a MSc doesn't necessary increase ur pay...a promotion or switching to a higher paying job is needed to do tat.

 

 

Key thing is as long as u r happy w ur current lifestyle, stay happy.

 

 

personally a msc in my opinion wont help. mostly look at bachelor.

 

depends on your job sector, get the necessary certificates is better option.

i concur...

 

as a engineer...

 

got msc + mba also like that... speaking from experience

 

your next pay jump for your new job depends directly on the pay of your present job... i.e current Pay +20%

 

no HRM will pay you any more... fact of life.

 

for engineers a large component of pay would be bonus.

 

join a industry with better bonus. eg marine ( 6-8 mths for some shipyards keppel fels etc), oil & gas etc, aviation ( ave 3-6mths)

 

Pay is a function of

 

- MNC vs SME ( usually MNC pay more but there are exceptions)

- industries ( some industry pay more than others. fact of life. Process engineer in manufacturing earn less than a process engineer in petroleum even though same qualifications)

- experience and certifications ( six sigma / PE/ C.Eng)

 

so it depends.

Somehow i agree that Msc no use. My main intention of taking Msc is to convert my bach degree from a not so reputable university to a more reputable university, although now i think most propoably will not even graduated. haha
