To those that are earning Salary More than RM 5K (Working in Msia) & Age below 28.
(I presumably u graduate at age of 22/23, after 5 yrs of experience, RM 5 K seems reasonable, though I think age of 25-26 earning >RM5K is also possible)

I Need ur advice !! What is ur occupation currently? Position ? What the "Factors" that make you earn more than others?
Eg.
1) qualifications?
2) line of work
3) how u got the position and tips!


You can be ur own boss/ employee, just share ur tips!!

i do agree making some jump when u r young is good for exposures n raise ur salary faster, but when u wanto move far in the industry tht u r into, by age 28 u better stick around in the same company ( in other words, decide the company u really wanto move on grow...) ,move on to the next level of jobscop b4 u make any jump again.

let's see whether this scenario works :
1. age 22-27 : make a jump every 1-3yrs to get pay rise n work exposures ( or jump when not happy with the job.? laugh.gif )
2. age 27-30 : work hard , work smart, contribute alot to move on to managerial level.
3. age 30-33 : gain more experience n testimonial as a manager / assistant manager
4. age 33-36 : time to jump for better offer....
5. age 40 : stick to the company who pay u alot.....tell those ppl below tht they hav to work hard to come near ur level, if not , move on..... laugh.gif

i m just making an assumption.....no right or wrong....
where m i ? stage 1 with no jump made at all, yet...

Like that, I think earning RM 5K is only possible in the category age of 33-36 sad.gif

My friend working in China as a mechanical engineer, people expect him to earn in USD$ but he is only making RM4k++, but having a good life there and also found love there.

Is that short-changed? Well, its like we said, up to indviduality. I dont think it's so bad if he likes it, right?

10K by age 28, possible....but no life...

10K is a lot !! Most people can't earn RM 10 K even in their forties.

I personally know a friend who is work as a ACCA lecturer, going to various countries to conduct ACCA class. He is earning around RM 15K per month, he is just 26 !!
He is 5 times ACCA Prize winner blink.gif

that amount just as example, how much debt is depend on income, what i mean here is atleist u got commitment to keep on making more money.

I don't 100% agree with you !! You might the correct some part here & there.

I think we need to have Desire to earn money.
Not because of commitment, we only earn money.
Commitment is a burden, Desire is a passion that will push you beyonds your limit..

People need to owe money to bank because most people can't earn enough income to buy a house/ car. So, they choose to borrow !!

The best is you are able to Buy the House/Car without borrowing/with minimum of borrowing

To be wise, we get what we afford. Or else, u will end up in bankruptcy.

My net income (after deduct EPF etc )RM 1.5 K, age of 22, with TARC Advanced Diploma Qualification. Working in my hometown (Not in big city like KL)

Actually i would like to join finance line, but it is so hard to a fresh graduated
I have tried to apply any job related to finance, but seem like no respond at all  cry.gif
so now just go to sg work as account officer and travel everyday  rclxub.gif 
hhmmm....taking part time ACCA, how much for the tuition fee?? hmm.gif
*
I don't think its difficult to get any jobs related to finance.... Especially if u wan to join the accounting firm. They really need people !!

Where u graduate ? How is ur result ?

Acrually working in Singapore is good ! The pay is fairly good, much better than Malaysia...

I think u can check up in ACCA website for the fees. I think one paper should be around RM 400 +. (Payable to ACCA)(depends on currecny rate)

If u need to for tuition or u can self study.... The tuition fees should be around RM 750-900 for one paper depends on which tuition centre.

besides.. u get better stndard of living while youre there. so the spending by conversion rate is justified  rclxm9.gif  rclxm9.gif

I just wonder, HOW MANY YEARS are u willing to work in foreign countries ??

I think the idea is to save some money & come back to Malaysia.

But , are u willing to accept a job in Malaysia that is much lower pay than ur previous job after u coming back ? (Eg. S$ 3000 vs RM 3200), thats a difference of RM 3000+
Are u willing to do that ? blink.gif

Everything and anything can make money. Even a toilet contractor with plenty of toilet contracts can make money. The problem is, how many percent of people in within the MLM really "make" that money? smile.gif

I'm speaking from experience and out of the huge number of friends I have which ventured into MLM, direct sales, etc - no one made it through. Two things to this - either all my friends are crap or the idea of these 2 businesses are plain crap rolleyes.gif


If one is interested in sales, they can always try doing a real sales job. I know people within the IT industry (sales) which makes a lot better than what I am earning. I know people selling financial savings plan, insuarance, etc that drives a BMW at the age of 25. All these are possible if you're on the right track and at least, it's a secured and guaranteed job.

Nevertheless, I do agree that some small percentage of people within MLM makes money. Shall I say less than 1% out of the thousands? Nevertheless, it's up to that individual to decide whether is it worth to spend time on something with such success rate.

Just my thoughts smile.gif
*
Apparently, ur frineds are not extraordinary ... biggrin.gif

If u believe in MLM , just go on , DO it & make it a sucess !! If u do not, just pray those that do MLM fail tongue.gif

For example , famous Singer/Actor earn 20 Milion a Year drool.gif .. But,most of us will said: "u don't dream la !!" You are not 183 cm tall, handsome or beautiful or not enough goodlooking , singi s just so so ...
Ya, a lot of Malaysia Singer struggle but a few had make their name & they are not handsome or beauty...

If u believe it, just GO FOR IT provide u hae the right skills etc !! What people said, just forgot about it....

Don't forget only 1% of people is extraordinary, while 99% is just ordinary!! Why follow the clouds ? Believe urself !!


We know that MOST 9-6 job can't promise much income, is 2K or 3K or 4K or 5K ?
Noramlly how old is an typically chief accountant? A CEO? A director?
