$10,920 a month (MX10) with generally 4 months bonus (year end + PB) i.e 16month package is not too bad for somebody who's spent their entire life shuffling papers and shooting arrows without any profit/loss responsibility. This fig will definitely break the psychological $11k threshold by the next wage adjustment and even as a farmer myself i'm quite ok with that figure.

Of course you MUST supplement your income with some sort of asset enhancement by the sidelide (i.e rental yield) if you're really serious about living comfortably.
