Are you satisfied with your current income?

[d'flash]

agree??

[joemarski]

^sa ibang bansa ba okay ang income pero di ganun kalaki ang TAX? or depende din sa bansa?

sa middle east walang tax. lahat pa ng pangangailangan mo, sagot ng kumpanya.
wala ring mga bisyo o ABS kasi nga bawal. talagang makaka- ipon ka o malaki ang
maipadadala mo sa pamilya mo... "homesickness" nga lang talaga ang kalaban lalo na
'yung every 2 years lang ang bakasyon... yari tayo diyan! tuyo na ang balon ni misis.

It is hard to earn your 1st million after that it is easy.

Earning is not the hard part. It's keeping it that's challenging.

I believe that in these times, that is only fair, bro.

Gone were the days when there is "employment for life"....

You are only as good as the employer sees your value and contributions to the company....

Sad reality....

masuwerte tayo dekalidad mga eskuwela natin kaya puwede tayo magpalit-palit o yung ibang mga bata.
may mga kilala kasi ako na gradweyt na pero walang pa ring trabaho. papakamatay para lang magkalaman yung wallet nila pambili pati ng pares ng sapatos dahil naupod na kaiikot.
isa na diyan kawawamyung mga gradweyt ng mga di kilalang paaralan.
dalawa nga sa katulong namin ang may mga diploma na. yung isa teacher sana, yung isa commerce. pero namasukan parin bilang katulong kasi walang makuha dito sa lupang pangako.
kaya nanghihinayang lang ako sa mga pagkakataon na sana iba ang nakatanggap.

budgeting and knowing your needs minus your wants are the key.

Naturally Humans have no satisfaction.. pag laki ng income pag laki ng gastos at least sating mga pinoy pero sa ibang nationality grabe sila mag tipid

I beg to disagree na grabe magtipid ang ibang nationality. Mas malakas pa nga silang gumastos sa sobrang taas ng standard of living. Pag vacation nila, sigurado travel agad yun kung saan-saan. Ito na lang mas simple sa office where I work, ang mga Pinoy packed lunch at free coffee lang sa pantry during breaks samantalang karamihan sa ibang nationality lunch out sa cozy resto at coffee sa mga coffee shops. Hindi rin sila nag-iinvest sa mga properties samantalang mga Pinoy abala sa pag-check ng mga condo for sale o house and lot. Bilib nga sila satin kasi inuuna daw talaga natin yung magkabahay. Isa din sa pinagkakagastusan ay yung mga pangangailangan ng pamilya at extended family.
Karamihan naman talaga tumataas yung standard of living pag lumalaki ang income...maraming galit sa pera.

para sa inyo makatarungan na ba ang salary increase na -/+3000 yearly?

[basti08]

^ depende sa work load.

depende sa rate ng increase ng iba.

[Retz]

ang advantage dito sa pinas, pwede ka mag trabaho sa isang kumpanya at the same time mag sideline.

If you're earning PHP100k, 3% salary increase, parang cinover lang inflation

believe it or not, here on the oil rig sometimes I do. sakop ko maintenance ng sewage treatment plant. we hate doing it but in truth it does not even bother us a bit looking at soup made of poop. wala naman na amoy pag treated na. we also pump it all out, clean thoroughly and spray disinfectant in the tank if in case we do need to go in. we also make sure our vaccines are up to date.

but my salary is not $16.7k/month ok. fraction lang nun

Maybe you mean fraction lang ang $16.7k ng salary mo? :bowako!
