Hey David Seah,

you said you can make a couple of millions in just 3 years, so surely your package is much higher than me. so why say i put words in your mouth, saying you make higher than me.

it may be true you play golf like CEOs every afternoon, waiting for a phone call. so what? i dont really care. u have your life to lead and i have mine to lead.

if people here are making lesser amounts than you are, please stop boasting that you can make $3 million in 3 years and you are very well insured with a 7 figure sum guranteed. Lesser people here might get their self-esteem crushed and more depressed hearing you boast so much like a cock. some of them might even get annoyed and angry at your arrogant comments you make about yourself.

Even though u can make more than me, I dont really care. I am 28 this year and i am fairly contented with my pay, bonus and perks. You can pilot a plane, no big ****. My friend who is only 25 years owns a company that manufactures and sells yachts and speedboats from Chong Qing China and I can ride his ships FOC. He is the kind of people I hang out with. He too is like you no need to work in office, because he works as a life planner in Great Eastern but got promoted to Associate Manager within 7 months only, and owns the yacht company as a CEO, and also helps his family with his jewlery business. He can as and when take his time and space to work.

I may have to go to office to work and I am helping my friend as a Marketing Director for his yacht company and working on weekends too. But i am happy with all my benefits and pay i get. Because i just bought a BMW Z4 for $205, 000 and I can afford it.

Whether you believe i am who i am is up to you. But now i can HA HA HA to you. Because I think my future is very bright at only 28 years old. And i can afford most things in life i might want now.

Ron



O My God.... U really are damn rich. U can buy Z4 for cash & u have a maserati (maybe in your playstation world)...

What next? merc slr maclaren with lewis ham as your driver?

Then it's Ferrari ENzo with Kimi as your driver..?

The number plate that u gave is also bogus, just like u

...i'm tired of entertaining u, good bye and go enjoy your cash.


(BTw, u can't decide which yr u were born... HAHA)

Except that almost every tricked up WRX, Evos, Civics etc are faster than your car at 1/4 the price. In fact, even my 'lao pok qia' (compared to your supposed car)is faster.


In anycase, if you can afford a GranTurismo S, you should be able to afford a Ferrari isn't it? The difference in instalment is only a few hundred a month or even lower if you get the F430 and that is an even faster car than the GranTurismo S.


But seriously, if you really are earning the money you're exclaiming, don't be stupid wasting it on such cars. After deducting your monthly instalment and maintenance, you're left with not alot of money. Would also expect your lifestyle to be such where you'll open a few bottles of pol roger a week, a few dinners at places like the cliff,il-lido etc and you'll be left with not alot of money to spend on girls and other passive source of investments. However, if you're an 'ah sia kia' and don't need to help support a family, get his own place etc then it's a different story altogether.


It'll also do you some good to spend some of your pay at http://www.britishcouncil.org/singapore.htm to improve on your english.

@everbody noticed

Give him the benefit of a doubt lah, monthly instalment + maintenance for both the Z4 and GranTurismo S is only about 5-7k a month assuming 10 yr 90% loan so he'll still have a few thousand left to play around with after deductin

Is this for starting salary? or average? or what? There can never be a sensible list of these things because the field is so wide.

Managing Director? This is so vague. MNC? SME? Investment bank? Private bank? MD of hospital? Law firm? Hawker Centre MD? What?????

Doctor starting pay working in govt hospital pulling barely $4,000-5,000/month.

Lawyer starting pay for A&G is already $7,000/month. This is for fresh lawyer who just passed the Bar, at most 22, 23 y.o.

A&G lawyer at 30 years old is already earning average $300k a year, medical specialist in govt practice at 30 years old still under $10,000/month ($120,000 pa), half of lawyer.

After that, if make equity partner (profit share), income can shoot up to $700k a year. Lucien Wong makes how many frigging million a year? And he is Managing Director.

In contrast, ask a junior partner at Lee & Lee how much (haha) he or she makes. Apparently the Lee's money-making talent never rubbed off on their lawyers.

The range is whatever the market will pay you. I'd suggest going for interviews and find out. Whatever range other people is telling you is rather useless unless they happen to be in the same domain, the same kind of company, and even the same background as you are.
