With great pay comes great responsibilities! ;)
 

at the place where i work, there are ppl who gave up the chance to hold the top post of the division.....the responsibilities were just too much......

Well said .. :thumbsup:

Sometimes it is not the job you are doing ... but the acts you are putting on ... :devil:
 

My theory. U cant reach 5k or any major improvement unless u job hop!!!
assue u get 2k basic... every year at most 300 / 400 increase. so u need 10years??? thats long long....
normally ppl job hop... assue u get 2k as an executive in company A. when u jump to B, they might offer u assistant manager post , maybe 3k liao. ETC ETC

the above happens to my frens... but not for me yet... so i cant 100% gurantee yet :P
 

Another way of earning extra income is to do a 2nd job. There are so many Network Marketing firms nowadays. Just get into any firm with a good reputation and work your way up. Even if you fail, you still have your full time job.

But as a network marketer, its similar as doing sales. The amt of effort put in is directly proportional to your income. It is different in a way whereby there is a chance to attain a continuos income even when you are not working. (Financial freedom as they call it) Wheres in Sales or other 'Iron Bowl' jobs, once you stop working, the income dies off.
 

So you in MLM???
 

Hi everyone!

I think most of us miss the point.

Is not the amount of money you are getting but the amount of happyness you are getting.

If you don't like your job, every minute is killing you. You may take your 5K or 10K to purchase the most expensive toy you want but you have to endure that killing hours in your office. Your performance will not likely be good and your future will be limited too.

If you like your job, you may ever do it for free (but don't tell your boss).

If you are in the cross juction now, decide carefully.

Once you have car/house/childred, you can't afford to charge line unless you are prepare to start allover again at very must lower $.

Do you want the rest of you say...10..20..30 years, doing what you don't like?

Anyone agreed?
 

I like to play game most.... but that will not earn me 5k ;)

Depend on what game. Tiger Woods & Vijay Singh caddies earn more than 5K. :D

Example : If you like to play computer game, you can be :

1) the person who design the game.
2) the person who test the game.
3) the person who market the game.

In each and every one of this 3, if you are good enough, you will be paid more the 5K. If you know the "game of this business" enough, you can be your own boss and the sky is the limit.

Passion..........give you the reason to stand up again and continue when you fall down....

even if there's a job tht earns u 5k by just playing games, cant guarantee that u will be happy. u wun get all the games u like to play all the time:)
 

I think the importance of that 5K pay here is that we're all comapring a higher income with our current expenditure.

I current get 700/mth and I'm looking at my friends with 3k and I'm like when to reach 3k.. but my friends at 3K are complaining they dun have enough to use!

When I reach 3K I would most probably be paying installments all over the shop. Then I'll start to think.. if only I have 5K.. :think:

I still strongly believe that you have to be at the right place at the right time.

There are lots of ppl (infact most ppl) wants to be rich all their life...but they are just not going anywhere.
 

Work hard and smart....reward will just come to u...
No pt asking how...U should know how

Anyway uni grads are all over on the street...throw a stone on st and it will hit a uni grad :)

cuz they are not only waiting for the right time at the right place, they are also waiting for the right numbers :bsmilie:
 

5K is not really a big deal considering the cost of living. If you earn 5K and is the sole income earner, that sum isn't that big. I think to have a fairly decent (not rich) life in S'pore, you'll need at least 10K in combined income.
 

If you are willing to work hard, sacrifice your weekends and don't mind working in an non-aircond environment, $5k shouldn't be a problem....

How? Sell chicken rice ... :)

Calculation:
1pack = $2
500packs/day =$1000/day (very conservative estimate)
1mth=$1000*30=$30K

Deduct:
Raw goods =$10K (roughly)
Rent =$10K/mth
Overheads(water/electricity/sanitary etc) = $500/mth
Employee salary =$2K
Misc =$500
Total =$23K

Monthly salary(yours)=$30K-$23K=> $7K.

That's 1st year salary too :cool:
Condition: right location, human traffic, advertisement & NO bird flu :)
