after i got increment my boss (chinaman company) really push me to the max.. go here and there..

btw, im 23, current salary RM2300 1st degree holder.

I really admire 1 of my colleagues; he aimed to become a millionaire before the age of 30. And he did it But that was from sheer determination and hard work, without which, I seriously doubt one can become as he had became unless the monies are already there to begin with.

From guy-on-the-street selling burger then insurance agent, then used cars promoter, then used cars seller then cars importer with other concurrent legal businesses. All those from sheer grit!

He told me that he'd stop when he hit 4 mill...but everyone would guess it right....he'll never stop. For all that...he drives a ferrari and has loads of very nice cars and superbikes.

I don't make as much but i'm quite contemp with my earning; having less to worry about how to push more cars into market etc etc

push more cars? hmm, i have seen quite a lot millionaires who do this car import-export thingy, specially those high class ones.

ai.. i wish i can earn more than 5k also...

Most companies pay shitty salary here in Malaysia. That's why I hope to get a decent job in Australia, the minimum salary of what I'm doing here currently in OZ is AUD7k a month.

Mind you, it's not because employers in Malaysia can't afford it - it's just that they refuse to pay decent salaries and wages to employees.

Yes i'm aware of that. Always looking out for more profits for them to the extend of refusing to pay their employees well.

Anyone knows how much usually the salary of a DBA with OCP cert?...

I got a friend of mine who's fresh...got a job at LHDN..starting RM3200..some people works for 3 years also can't get that range..

Actually, it's more profits for their new bungalow renovations or their brand new Brabus.

The disparity in income between CEO types and the grunts have never been greater in Malaysia.

Our gov never do something on this issue, the only thing they know are asking us to change our lifestyle...

I don't like to "defend" the govt but I don't see how the govt can control what and how the private sector does things. Most of the complaints I have are related to the private sector especially the low starting salaries and almost non-existent increments.

If a comapny are making lots of profits, i am sure they will be willing to pay bonus to the employee but in here , there a lot of other $$$ monies to give to other parties in order to seal a contract ..... i think if gov is free of corruption , i am sure the people will get more salary ..

One of my friend escaped from harsh KL white collar lifestyle to England and earn GBP £3,000 (RM20,000) per month now as an engineer. It's easy. Just go UK. RM5k is really nothing nowadays.

but going to UK is not that easy.

@weehoi,
You cant really convert in order to make comparison cause a simple nasi goreng will cost you RM32. However, you can state that £3,000 can buy a whole lot more things than RM3000. Rental and public transportation cost in London if compared dollar-per-dollar is almost the same as KL. It's just that other things like groceries, broadband, mobile phone bills, electricity, cable TV, clothing, travel and etc are more affordable there.

And they're complaining about having to pay £200 a year for electricity. Pfft some of us even pay that amount a month!

It's easier than you think Especially if you're a science/engineering worker. Look up for Tier 1 High Skilled Migrant visa. Employers dont even have to sponsor a permit for you.

@robertngo
Hahahaahah . Here's another way to do it. Get a masters degree (average 140k 'investment' - tuition fees and living expenses), work there for 2 years under Tier 1 - Post-Study Work (no income requirement).

After two years of earning in £, you can apply to transfer to General Highly Skilled Migrant class. It will be so much easier for you to meet the income requirement compared to when you're applying in Malaysia. Am doin it next year
