deduct one or two k minimum for living expenses.
you are left with one or two k.

What am I missing? Fresh grad earn 3.5k, this teacher drawing 5k after 3 years but you are trying to say he is underpaid? No money to live? What is your imagined scenario, 28 year old single parent, paying off his
hdb?
Not saying teachers are overpaid, just that they are quite well remunerated as compared to the past, and in general.
