Submarine82 1st Gear March 30, 2015 Author Share March 30, 2015 how much you earn depend on whats your value to the market . so lets start simple analysis ........ - your Master degress is major in ? Master degree from which Uni ? - how many yrs of working experience ? - what line are you in ? to drive a simple Merc now , due to the high COE unfortunately , you roughly need min 6k take home. thats provided you are single with no burden. you do not need to do business to drive a merc . - Embedded system, NTU - 7 years - software engineer ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ngbernie 3rd Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Singapore full of opportunities, doesn't matter what qualifications you have. If you can 'jia khor', you can break out of the cycle. My previous part time cleaner takes up 3 jobs a day, everyday of the week. (each job $60-70, 3-4 hours). No CPF no leave, but take home 5-7k. Work your weekends (part time cleaner or not) and you can take home 2k to afford that C-class. But I bet you will also truly understand the meaning of hard-earned money and won't splurge on the highest-depreciating "asset" in SG 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angchug 3rd Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Better make sure you are not driving a better car than your supervisor. I knew of two friends that got fired for driving a better car. Some angmo bosses can get jealous easily. Better make sure you are not driving a better car than your supervisor. I knew of two friends that got fired for driving a better car.

Throttle2 Supersonic March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Hi All, I am driving Hyundai Getz now. Its COE is due in one year time. I am 33 years old and earning $4k per month. I am car enthusiast and I wish to own a new Merc C class in the near future. Do you think it is possible to own a new Merc C class at my current salary level? If not, what should I do? Any kind soul please advice me... Easy lah. Definitely possible. Got HDB boh? Sell that, should get some cash. Use that to down for C Class. Rent a room somewhere. Life is short. Do it. Merc C Class is really cool. Everyone will see you up. You will be so cool. Plse post pics when done. Yea! 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lijun07 1st Gear March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 I just want to know how much I should earn at age of 33? How much I should earn to own a new Merc? I must do business in order to own a new Merc? I had completed my Master degree. I'm 33 this year too, driving a simple "Very Worried" Jetta only. Earning more than you but don't even dare to dream a car I can only merely afford. My personal view - car is only a luxury, not a necessity. Want vs need, weigh them urself. Some 33 earning only $2k and some already staying at home shaking legs. Mark Elliot Zuckerberg, only 32, already bought an island. Perhaps, he is now digging nose, scratching armpit. Too difficult to answer you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vid Hypersonic March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 This is the cheapest C180k on sgcarmart http://www.sgcarmart.com/used_cars/info.php?ID=466324&DL=1079 $28.8k. Reg on 3 Oct 2005 so should still have few months to drive before scrap. if you don't even have $28.8k cash, then don't bother thinking about the C class anymore.
