So explain to us how does the political party of Singapore prevent a mnc like Deutsche bank (to whom we all know is facing structural issues) from making people redundant?

When Lim Cheng Kee, 49, was laid off from her risk and compliance job at Deutsche Bank in August 2018 after more than 10 years in the industry, it was a blow that she did not see coming. Hers was one of the more than 7,000 roles that the German lender had cut worldwide. "Hiring and firing seems quite common in the banking world but I just didn't expect it to happen to me so fast," she tells The Business Times. "I knew that roles like operations, back office and IT jobs are being outsourced to lower-cost countries, but I didn't think that risk and compliance would be on the chopping block."

She was part of the global team and looked after the Asia Pacific region, talking to internal stakeholders and conducting records risk assessments to evaluate if they meet regulatory requirements, as well as implementing a risk and compliance framework.

Describing her previous role as particularly niche, she believes that is partly why she has not managed to secure a job since then. It is not a case of being picky: "I am open to all industries and have applied for risk and compliance roles, including financial compliance," she says.

More than one year on, Ms Lim is still taking on temp jobs such as book keeping - she is a trained accountant - and being a receptionist to keep busy.

Exactly right on the spot!

Stupidity is is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

You like to blame the current political party on whatever issue over and over again.

That reflect how stupid are you and expecting a different result if it is another political party.

Do you mean another political party can prevent DB from restructuring?

Default Lets get back to talking salary again

This forum was started in Feb 2010 by Avatar to share and discuss annual incomes. Lets see how our incomes have changed over the 9+ years.

In 2010, my annual income was $127,000. Last year (2018) it went up to $256,000. A combination of pay adjustments against inflation and promotions. New (good class honors) graduates joining my company used to get $3,000 per month, now new graduates are getting $5,000 per month.

At the end of the day, how much you earn is only 1 aspect, another important aspect is how much you can save from what you earn. In 2010, I was saving about 25% of my annual salary, now with both my kids having completed their uni studies, home loan paid off, no car loan, no maid, I was able to save 75% of my 2018 income.

If you are able to save 100% of your salary, you have reached financial independence!

Well done!

I guess you are referring that you are able to save 75% income due to lower expenses and your passive income is covering 75% of your expenses.

So if your passive income can cover the remaining 25%, you would be reaching FI!

This doesn't make much sense and is what's hindering people from aiming for financial independence. Being able to save 75% of income means he only needs 25% of his income. If his passive income is 25% of his active income he can retire.
Banks and financial institutions like to benchmark retirement $ needs against our last drawn income. That's BS. Keep your expenses low and you will be financially independent. A consumption mindset and lifestyle doesn't givve ppl fulfillment, we are too influenced by marketing.

On average, you would enjoy almost 10% salary increase compounded every year. That is very rare for most people.
My average over 6 years was a meagre 2% increase to adjust for inflation.
I have to move to another firm to get the jump I needed (not to expectation).
You are a lucky man.
