13th month or whatever they call it = 1 month, which is standard
End-of-year bonus = 0.7...this is a very conservative assumption, if u are aware of the amount the govt paid out over the last few years

With that the total bonus = 5.2

In all, there would be 12 + 5.2 = 17.2 months of salary.

Divide 120K by 17.2 and u will get 7K.

Is 7K at age 33 achievable if one joins the civil service right from the beginning? U wont bet against it....unless u arent from HR.
