Graduated in Malaysia. It is very much depends on your potential company. As for audit, this is usually the rate.

But the increment is high about 20%-30% per annum.

i have a feeling that you're envious if.. assuming it's indeed a person posting up that they earn a 6-figure monthly income..

looking at the way you responded to it, indicates to me that your personal ego is bruised since for little apparent reasons.. even logic don't reveals much by re-stating a typo.

honestly, to have such a level of income.. i'm sure you know what it takes and what's important.. it's not just about personal ego(the reaction that i got from your first comment as opposed to a sudden change of language tone of the above)

here's the magic.. i get to keep almost 90% of my monthly income. as i've noted that most high-earners are also collectively, high spenders.. at the end of the day, it's like a zero sum game..

taking 2.5 years to have that income? what's that suppose to mean? have i not tell you that i earned above rm10k/month at my first job abroad.. would that qualify me to 0.0 year?

heck.. i've never hear such petty comparative statement from a high-income earner before.. let me guess, you're into sales? (as such, you may not have a high salary per se.. i'm not into sales, i get my as nett.. or ebita)

So, I assume you do some side investment as well? Which industry are you in?

i don't just "do" investment.. the ratio of studying/planning an investment is so much higher than the "do" part.. execution is usually swift and determined. it's the planning and due-diligence that take a long time.

you played chess right? have you ever tried lightning chess? goodness, i can't handle the stress of not being able to think in such a diminutively short period of time..

in regular chess.. the thinking part is so long, but the move is a quick snap.

Yup, they are called Blitz. Usually ends in 60 seconds or 180 seconds (3 mins). Very brilliant piece of advice, how you associate Chess with your career plan. Totally agree!
But as for me, I have yet to execute my plan. Am still looking for the right field, Tried MLM but wasn't for me.
