It's not "a lot", but you can save more by cooking at home, for breakfast and dinner. Hmm, but if working till late at night can be a big issue for expenses.

If you have problems to even save RM 100, you need to relook at your car loan and food costs.

Where got RM10 per meal. You talking like u eat big breakfast every day.

What happened to good ole bread and milk for breakfast, or cereal? Surely not close to RM10. More like RM1 or less.

Economy rice, easily can eat full for RM7. If you really wanna save money on meals, can even go lower than that.

No locals take minimum wage jobs
Even work at fast food, gig works pay more. Those that take minimum wage are foreign workers.

If you work under minimum wages, you have to spend on priority first. (Food&Drinks, Transportation, Home)

Ideal estimate for a month (Example for factory worker, single life)

F&B - RM10 per day x 30 day = RM300 (Cut half if lunch provided)
Transportation - RM300 maybe (Or free if company provide)
Home - RM300 for room rental (Or free if company provide)
Others such as internet, healthcare, toileteries, etc. - RM200

Possible total expenses monthly - RM1100

Your expenses depends on your income. Lower wages, means that you have to live with less luxury. If it's not enough, you'll need extra income, ( or find better paying job).

Factory worker would normally share house, do money collection to buy groceries, to survive).

10k per month = high class? lulz, u bodo or wat? 10k is average at best..

my salary is more than u and ur wife combine, and i dun even classify myself as high class. i will still spend prudently and make sure my financial state is in good condition.

No time? Then make time.
It's all said planning and preparation. Waste you buy groceries fun the market, plan it out and pack according to your plan.
You don't have to make complicated meals.
Chinese cooking is simple and fast.

I this evening cooked a nice chicken wings stew in ginger soya sauce. Chicken wing is prepared, just have to bring it down to the fridge in the morning. Evening when I reach home, take it out, and dump it into the cooking pot.

Yesterday..I cooked minced pork in Thai basil, cooked dry. Goes well with white rice.

After cooking I even have time to go for a daily 30 minutes run.

No time then make time.
