You didn't state your age.

I think I achieved it relatively late, about 29 years old or so.

Not including investment returns because I don't consider that as income.

Late 30s - now hitting 50. But thats because of the SG-Ringgit conversion. I am abt a few hundred close to 5-figure in SG in SG dollar terms now. Im an Asst Dir, Technical Services with a pharmaceutical firm in Sg.

I have to complete my Masters 1st otherwise I cannot compete with the other EP holders here.

Depends on your progression. In a smaller company, it can be slower. Or if there are locals, then likely they may push up the locals first.

go take up some technical skill like cloud tech and do some side projects to build your portfolio

https://www.jobstreet.com.my/en/job/consult...0In%20New%20Tab

interview process is probably highly competitive though. you will encounter some of the best, so u better work hard to be the best as well

yeah i find it really hard for normal employee to break even 5k apatah lagi 10k, unless specific industries

there are exceptions like a friend of mine grad and went into OnG field become onsite engineer on oil rig. easily USD9k per month for a 26yo. but caveats are stuck in oilrig for months and forced to travel here there

11k when 30 years old, 24k when 37 years old and 31k when 41 years old. All as an employee.

Bought my G30 and semid when reached 24k, upgraded from a Camry and DSL

Added my 2nd car, a X70 when reached 31k.

At my age and salary now, it’s way above my expectation. When young only wish for a Camry and a salary 10k. Combined with my wife, we’ve a household income of 42-43k monthly. Really glad now I don’t have to think twice and just buy or eat anything me and my family wants 😊

You didn't state your age.

I think I achieved it relatively late, about 29 years old or so.

Not including investment returns because I don't consider that as income.

yeah i find it really hard for normal employee to break even 5k apatah lagi 10k, unless specific industries

there are exceptions like a friend of mine grad and went into OnG field become onsite engineer on oil rig. easily USD9k per month for a 26yo. but caveats are stuck in oilrig for months and forced to travel here there

OnG earn lots but yeah once stuck, need to travel here and there which is normal isn't?
wow that's like 36k above at that age!! way beyond some of our achievement

Bought my G30 and semid when reached 24k, upgraded from a Camry and DSL

Added my 2nd car, a X70 when reached 31k.

At my age and salary now, it’s way above my expectation. When young only wish for a Camry and a salary 10k. Combined with my wife, we’ve a household income of 42-43k monthly. Really glad now I don’t have to think twice and just buy or eat anything me and my family wants 😊

interview process is probably highly competitive though. you will encounter some of the best, so u better work hard to be the best as well

this is not a skill where anyone can just take up and learn.

doing cloud stuff is not walk in the park.

but nowadays hard for IT people they have to know frontend + backend + cloud + devops + taichi skills etc.

But, assuming everyone is telling the truth here, you guys are rich at an early age, because I remember my 50+ years old teacher mentioned that he get 8k/mth, telling us that this "iron rice bowl" isn't as lucrative as other jobs.

Comparing and racing to 5 figure salary is all fine and dandy. But a better race imo is who is the fastest to be free from corporate slavery or tied to a business you can't escape. In other words, to be in complete control of your time. Having money and time, as soon as you can, is the ultimate goal.

Personally I don't have a fixed salary. Earn by project basis. FIREd at 32. Doing whatever I want at the moment. Plan to be a FT dad for the next few years while working part time.
