Can You Survive With Salary RM3,000 If You Have Family? [ March 16th, 2010 ] | 280 views | Leave a Comment

Do you think that you can survive with salary RM3,000 in Malaysia nowadays. Based on my personal survey, I noticed that in Malaysia, the average family income is RM3,000 per month. But, I do understand that there are still many families whose monthly income does not reach RM3,000.

monthly_salary

In order to make calculation simple, let’s take RM3,000 as the figure:

Electricity bill: RM40 (Assume no air-con, no water heater)

Water bill: RM10

Phone bill: RM100

Family meal: RM900 (3 meals on RM30/day)

Car repayment: RM450 (A Perodua Myvi, 5 years repayment)

Petrol fees: RM150-200

House repayment: RM550 (Assume living in low medium cost apartment)

Personal insurance: RM400 (combination of you and your wife)

Total monthly expenses: RM2,650

All the above calculation have not taken into account when you have own children. Besides, the EPF and income tax haven’t deducted. So, do you think family with salary RM3,000 enough to survive? Obviously, you will say cannot, am I right?

Consequences of Never Paying Back PTPTN Loan

PTPTN
What action will be taken by government if did not payback PTPTN loan??

You’ll probably get banned from going oversea and unable to get any loan from bank in future. And, it will affect your next generations too.

Did you receive any letters chasing for the repayment? If you got and keep on ignoring those letters, their lawyer will send you one final reminder letter. The compound will be issued after you received the lawyer letter but still refuse to pay.

Interest rate is 3% only. Usually they start charging interest 6 months after graduation. They put it as administrative cost in the statement and they are actually charging it every month, which is depends on the loan balance. If you don’t pay now, the so-called administrative cost will keep on accumulating. So, finishing the payment as soon as possible will be better as it is compounded.

Why Choose Jobstreet ?

Jobstreet

If asked where to look for jobs, someone will surely say “JobStreet“. With its large network covering 9 countries like Malaysia, India, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Japan, Hong Kong, there’s no doubt that JobStreet has always been one of the ideal choices among job seekers and employers.

Jobstreet

For me, it has higher accuracy match job. As a jobseeker the site speed is quite fast and they had dominating the market for years. But, the drawback is there got quite little request for interviews each month.

For JobsandMore, the job opportunities listing is still considered relatively little. Well, perhaps it is still new in the industry, probably it takes some time to be known.

JobStreet Vs JobsAndMore

In terms of physical layout, JobsAndMore doesn’t offer better sense because it cannot show own identity as jobs posting site. The job search mechanism seems not being focused and highlighted.

Furthermore, it doesn’t provide the facility of alert email subscription.

Make Money From Recycling

You can recycle all your unwanted items; this is to reduce the waste. Besides, don’t feel that those old unwanted items might be junk to you because it might be useful to someone else.

Make money taking care of the environment is the value of appreciation. Recycling newspapers is one way to get money without getting another job. You can have many ways to collect old newspapers. My ideas is you can try to write a sign and post it on notice board, have it say, “Free up space in your home, send me your unwanted newspapers!” Or go to coffee shops and ask for some.

Reduec,Reuse,Recycle

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” should go without saying. Reducing the amount that we consume, and shifting our consumption to well-designed products and finding constructive uses for “waste” materials will become the next.

As a matter of fact, Zhang Yin, a 49-year-old paper recycler from China is the world’s richest self-made woman.

So, what are you waiting for? Faster take an action !!!
