about 5k is reasonable enough. Dont think so we gals are asking too much?judging from how high the living expenses is these days. But it'll only be sufficient if we gals work as well. So both incomes add up together = should be able to live quite comfortably.

You can live with the combined income, but not quite comfortably. Finance need to be calculated properly, and if you have browse the finance section even once, it is enough to make you realise a lot about money. Assuming you are talking about gross, not net. If you are talking about net income, then it is good.

5k - epf - income tax - commitments & entertainment = your real $

Don't forget you need pay house, car, phone, girls, entertainment, etc etc etc.

Though, it is up to a person how good lifestyle does he/she want, if good lifestyle = less savings. Some below the income bracket 1k with 5 children also can survive. And they say everything here is expensive, but yet all still can afford go shopping every week, roads are jammed up everywhere.

Love is one part of the relationship. Another part would be sharing burdens as well. Life is not a linear line, it has ups and down.

if you think about it - should the guy be earning 100% of the $$$, then the guy should also have absolute rights to decide how much to allocate to the girl ......... see if anyone still got the cheek to complain. smile.gif

no complain...totally agree..y should we give our money we earn 100% so tough easily for gals?
just to make her happy? wat lau...so "tan"(cantonese) lo....then i oso wan to be gal..no need work can spend money.

Maslow theory teaches us human "Needs" and "Wants"

guy know clearly wat is their "needs" and "wants"

but gurl....i punya "needs" tu "needs" lo...but i punya "wants" tu...."needs" jugak..
for me..i wont give cash money..
i prefer give tangile things.
so that cash flow can be controlled and properties can be owned.

want spend?? earn urself...haha

i feel kinda disturbed reading this thread. a lot voted for more than 15k. most guys grad at their mid to late 20s. typical starting salary is rm2k-3k. to me, reaching 5k by 30 is already a miracle. unless he's super genius or linked to mca or umno top guns... biggrin.gif

girls, imho if your guy commands a rm15k pay, then his job will be gila-glia type, like going outstation all the time and having to sleep in the office.. i know a bank manager earning 20k, spends most of the nights in the office. so you'll enjoy his $$$ but not his presence. in the end, some tai tai cannot tahan then go and find toy boys. defeats the entire purpose.

just what i think la.. smile.gif

As I mentioned before, there is a HUGE difference between providing for one's family and feeding some materialistic leech of a woman in her LV and Gucci shopping sprees.

Gentlemen, a word of advise - if you want to marry, tie the knot with a woman who is wise with her and the family's expenditure and investments. Only an idiotic man would marry a woman who spends all his $$ away on consumer goods and he has only himself to blame for this.

I'll be blunt here - I am of the opinion that most (if not all) who voted for the "more than 15k" category are either students or wet-behind-the-years freshies in the job market who knows NOTHING about the pay scale that is prevalent in the Malaysian job scene.

Those women who selected this pie-in-the-sky option should also ask themselves this question - what do YOU have or can give to the 15K+ man of your dreams in exchange for such a lucrative arrangement?

men are torn between the practicality of having a stable, well-financed future, and also the desire to lavish their loved wives every now and then.

This thread just reinforce the opinions of some of my male friends who said to me that Malaysian women very demanding and "mata duitan"

Most of them broke up with their malaysian GF even after many years of courtship and end up marrying foreign women.

ps : I would say malaysian chinese women, but i will just be branded racist.

Fresh graduate - 24 years old - civil servant - starting salary RM2500

Honestly do you think he can get RM15 000 or other unreasonable amount of salary within
6 years ?

If i were to marry a gal who expect me to have at least a salary of RM15k, then i'll go and find another gal.

If RM5000 would be reasonable for a guy to achieve in 6 years depending on the job he got.

p/s dont talk about super rich guy flex.gif
