im earning 3K++ at the age of 23. only 1 year working experience. my target is >10K before 30. if not cant live in KL!!!!!

earning 1.5k can live in kl provided u go out by bus, stay and eat with parents. no need give parents even 1 cent. then u can live in kl.

for me i owned a condo now (of course i have considered many factors and do analysis and oso my financial ability before i buy the condo) and need to pay monthly installment plus miscellaneous expenses. 3k net is just ngam ngam for me. im a professional tax consultant / future chartered accountant with my professional qualification, i confident enough i can earn 10k when i reach 30. o even more. i can see a bright future and i plan to own an accounting firm when i able to do so.

Goldfries. how many percent of frens u know cant earn 10k when reach 30? on wat basis u say its unrealistic? do explain more.

earning 10k when reach 30 is not unrealistic. its depending on ur planning. and remedies when ur plans are out. without proper plan don say earn 10k, 5k oso a problem when u reach 30. this is a competitive environment nowadays and because of this competitive environment, millions/billions of opportunities are out there. its whether u able to grap it o not. so don say its unrealistic.

i cant comment on the salary listed there. however, this is just the quotation by them. if u have the ability and we so call "power", its depend on ur demand. for me, i got about 1k increment within 1 year - since the first day i joined (fresh grad).

but bear in mind, some position in some field will increase to a certain limit and stop, but some will increase non-stop as u move up... of course the older u r, the more sources of income u get, eg. dividend, investment etc (i assumed - unless u do the same thing n earn the same income for the whole life)
