RM250K until O Level. Excluding text books, uniform, exam, and utilities.
Until Bachelor Degree must be over half a mil.
After graduated, if working domestic, rm4k/monthly income fist 5 years?
Then rm8k/monthly next 5 years? Rm 8K a month barely enough to afford himself a housing loan. Already age 30.
Until when they can earn back the half a mil?
If I give this half a mil to him after he graduated from local university, he can start his own business/ investor right after graduate?
Can we ask Tenby how much average our son can earn for first 5 years fresh graduate?
How much extra income they can get as compare to Local U fresh graduate?
To send our children to international we need to have fair confident on our finance power for next 20 years. There is no half way stop nor turning back.
We can not sell off after few years of investment like we sell off property.
We can not stop half way and send them back to local school half way either, it's effecting their learning and precious time even badly.
Haha... houses are cheap.
No wonder so many peoples like to buy house.
*just a discussion. I am not anti international school. I plan to have my children to receive education from international school too.
I really appreciate how they focus on personal character development instead of exam on paper. That's the reason why i have no choice but to work double hard to send him in.
Lol... it is difficult to treat children as "investment" nowadays. If you try to calculate how much you have used to bring them up (food, lodging, medical, transportation, etc alone, excluding education), I think most of them whole life also can't "return" half back to us.
The crucial point would rely on parents' affordability and willingness, don't over commit.
