The median salary of Singaporeans based on data from Salary.sg always outperforms the official statistics on median pay by a huge margin.
I wonder if I'm being told that I'm earning a "median" amount by the media, just so that low income folk like myself can feel "average" and happy.

I believe the median salary in salary.sg is skewed upwards due to people are more willing to flaunt their achievement here than showing below-par performance.

Self-selection bias. On one level, people on this forum tend to care more about their career and have a higher salary. On a second level, even within this forum, the people who don't earn as much will less likely post in this thread as well.
