QUOTE(deodorant @ Mar 29 2012, 01:28 PM) eh where got? $5k is for two ppl leh. take out the housing rental and it's $1.2k/pax/month that's hardly what I would call "luxurious" 5k is possible if the wife take are of kids and cook home meals. That's family life, not for couple without kids. My life style is very different now with young kids. We have outing almost every week but it does not cost much. That's just me and my wife. We choose to spend less. We use free pass down item instead of paying $500 for a baby stroller etc. We will move to JB by end of this year. So I expect our family expenses will be even lower. |

QUOTE(deodorant @ Mar 29 2012, 09:21 AM) Just chipping in to give some additional info. Moving from KL to SG, you have to give up certain ... comforts. Ringgit-to-Dollar, rm2.5k/mth you can have a nice comfy gated condo with swimming pool, and drive everywhere in a local car. sgd2.5k/mth you can only get a <1000sqft hdb (i.e. public housing) flat with no facilities, and have to take public transport everywhere. Thanks deo, conclusion is the comfortable salary for me and family to live in SG is still $10k right. In addition, the first-month relocation & settling-in money you need to cough up can be quite an eye-opener - when moving in to my current place (rented) I had to cough up over $12k for agent fee, first month rental, 2 months security deposit and furnishing. If your company doesn't cover your relocation then you have to further factor in the costs of packing and shipping all the contents of your KL place to SG as well. Other than housing & owning a car though, everything else is less than a sgd1:myr1 ratio. quick & dirty example, marutama ramen in MY is like rm20 a bowl; in SG it's $14. Also, just commenting on river's $5k estimation, that's about the average basic monthly expenses for myself + my fiancee without kids - and not including all those "miscellaneous" stuff that every month also sure got - things like birthdays, needing to fly back to M'sia for whatever purpose, holidays, shopping, savings, etc etc. But let say I got the $10k...but I settled down JB...let say WadiHana Condo just 5 minutes from CIQ. I still have a lot of surplus monetary... |

With S$10K a month, you will still have lots of surplus if you stay in Sg. And by the time you earn $10K, you won't want to waste 1-3 hours each day just going to work, in order to save a few hundred bucks. Your lifestyle will also mean that you will be mostly spending on stuff that just as expensive in JB as it is in SG, if not more so. |
