What is your average monthly expenses and how much do you save?

Its always greener on the other side of the fence.

I can tell you the tv commercial directors (the semi good ones anyway) charge 1.5m per day of shooting as professional fee. And they are booked a lot.

The big wigs in these stock brokerage firms (they are employees and their one and even two downs) haul in 100m a year.

Power industry execs are normally in the top 100 individual taxpayers. They PAY 50plus m in taxes per year.

2. Banks offer better benefits in terms of bonuses and other incentives

3. Only hi-tech companies offer share based compensation

4. Working for the government will not make you rich, unless you are corrupt.

5. Running your own business is risky unless you sell gen sets and have a business minded daughter

6. Nissan urvan can be bought cheap if repossessed but isuzu crosswind is ideal for vhire business

7. I am in the wrong line of work

sir, totoo ba yung sinasabi nila na yung jdf is not subject to audit because it will violate the fiscal autonomy of the supreme court. at yung mga buildings where the RTCs or MTCCs or MCTCs or MeTCs are sitting across the country are not owned by the SC but owned either by the LGUs or the National Government because the annual budget of the judiciary doesn't allot for that purpose, since its annual budget is earmarked only for salaries, allowances, and MOEEs.

*jm may Taga coa na pumupunta din samin... Surprise inspection pa nga sila ng books namin... The Hall of justice bldgs. Ay Mostly galing sa DOJ budget... Iilan Lang galing sa local govt... May issue pa nga Pag galing sa local govt. At ang kasunod na problema dun is sino naman ang magbabayad ng electric and water bills ng HOJ bldg. na galing sa local govt.? Eh walang budget na naka alot ang SC and Doj dun...

There are 3 branches of govt.. Executive, legislative and the judiciary... Pero when it comes to budget the judiciary get only .005% of the national budget.... Kaya napupupunta sa salaries, benefits and office supplies lahat.. Wala na matitira para sa Pag pagawa ng HOJ bldgs. Kahit nga pang maintenance man Lang ng aircon ang hirap mag request ng budget... Kaya majority of hoj bldgs. In the phils. Is in poor condition... Ni walang aircon..

Usually sa local govt. Kami humihingi ng assistance...

Asa ka pa. Baka iwanan na lang sa harap ng garahe mo yung unit i-lock pa ang susi sa loob, at wala na ibibigay na boundary sa iyo takbuhan ka na lang. Usually naman yung mga ganun na driver dati na nila gawa ang ganyan. Hahanap ng malipatan yan tapos yung last day nila di sasabihin sa iyo saka ka tatakbuhan. Swerte ka pa kung di ka gawan ng kalokohan. Minsan yan empty ang fuel tank, wala na reserba, HU, pati battery pag iniwan yung unit sa harap ng garahe mo. Yung isang tantadong driver nga ni erpats pati fuel pump at water pump dinale pa e. Meron pa kami isang unit na iniwan pa sa probinsiya, tinext na lang sa amin kung saan namin kukunin.

Huwag kayo papasok sa transport business kung di kayo handang manutok ng baril sa driver at kaladkadin sila sa presinto. 9/10 ng drivers ng puv mga g*go. Yung mga successful lang dyan yung mga halang din ang bituka kaya takot mga drivers nila gumawa ng kalokohan.

Malaki na rin for 20s yung 40k net. That's around 60k gross. Is that regular shift without OT?

Why is the rent so cheap? I assume you are living in with your GF so all those rent, food and utilities are 50%? Dati kasi nag plano akong maglayas so I looked around condos in salcedo, legazpi and bgc. Nasa 30k per month. My kuya said I have to pay for condo parking, utilities and probably assoc dues. I scrapped the idea, hindi ako pwede magmalaki sa family ng "lalayas ako" :bwahaha:

My friend rented a studio type condo in Makati for a time (since she lived in Fairview and worked in Makati then). She paid around 6.5k per month since there were 2 of them sharing 13k.

Try not to look for high-end condos. Kung ano lang yung tugma sa income mo.

That's another problem for me kasi I wanted to live on my own (no condomate). I really can't afford it with my small salary. Even if I got a 13k condo I still need to pay for parking slot and utilities. It sucks to have a low paying job :(

Live within your means... being able to afford something does not mean you should buy it... Save for your future
