Hi.

I'm not comparing working in Malaysia or in SG.

Its just a suggestion for those who wanted to earn >Rm5K, they can try work in overseas like in SG, safe the money and use it in Malaysia.
My fresh graduate cousin can easily earn Singapore dollar 3K permth with her allowance + OT. She just spend about 1K for accomodation, public transport and meal in Singapore. Safe abt 2K and bring back to Johor convert becomes RM4K++.. Pay for condominium, car installment, give parents money, shopping + entertainment and still have money for savings.

In KL.. 5K salary range nomally for senior management people/professional engineers, docs, IT. etcs. Most of their age already around late 20s or 30++.Fresh grads normally salary around 1.8-2.5K. Each yr increment about 5%+/-. After minus all the expenses, theres very little money left already.

Nope, i'm not from HP. I'm with the telco.

Working life is tough. We have to work smart, do some investment and have additional plan B income. If possible break free from working life and be own boss. Make sure have enough savings and have strong investment backup that generate passive incomes.

Cheers,
