What makes you think that the Asia growth story is over? The bulk of consumer good sales are in Asia. There is a lot of potential in the region, plus he seems keen to come back home. Do you think it's so easy to marry a white hot blonde babe, settle well in Manhattan and be a baller? More likely reach a bamboo ceiling in 3-4 years, ESP in MC!

F_ucking Dream on lah, loser. Talk as though you have lived or worked in the US before.
hahaha i do agree that asia as well as APAC on a whole, is gonna shine in time to come. Markets in APAC is growing very quickly, may wanna consider this fact!

You won't be spending a lot of time at home so don't bother about it being nice, you just need it to be safe and make sure ur stuff won't get burgled while you're off in other states doing work. You can always earn the money back. Experience is more important. Also, your CV will be nicer(some employees like their candidates to have oversea experiences). I had a close friend who went to LA PWC for MC. I can elaborate more if you need.
Hi,

I was the one that started the thread. Can you elaborate but what your friends think about exits and transitioning back to sg (if he is even considering that option).

I'm not worried bout money atm, it isn't a huge concern. Honestly a total package of USD90-100 is more than enough for any fresh grad. Besides, following my internship last summer, I'll probably expense everything from Monday to Thursday anyway. So my only real outgoing is rent, and entertainment on the weekends.

My main concern is more from a career development perspective than anything.

osd Like I said, you will easily earn back those tax/rental money in the future. On the grand scheme of things that 15-20% is probably like at most 1-2k difference a month. If you work hard and do well overseas I like to think that it will open more doors for better career opportunities/remuneration. It is ok to give up on money/savings for the first few years of your career if your family don't need you to contribute. When you're young and single, that's the time to take risk and opportunities. When you're married with kids and have good job offer overseas, thats a whole new story. Life isn't always about money. Read this(https://forums.salary.sg/income-jobs/...html#post78609). Western culture and environment is way different than Singaproe.

20-30s = got time and energy but no money.

40s = got money and energy but no time

50s+ = got money and time but energy
