Yes, many here don't earn that amount a month, but this expat is spending $11,650 per month.  Can we get the breakdown of costs for the expenditure of this expat, to see if it is justifiable for them to spend such a large amount................ Laughing nudie

can spend 11k++ PER Month means earn roughly 20, 30k++ might even 50k

If spend 11k ++ , than monthly also got other misc expenses. haven't add in also surely he/she might invest too park some wages into investment etc
Lucky expat.

Errr....what's the point to compare the lifestyle between Peasant and Pinoy "expat" leh... Big Grin
Actually with double income and kids, a family spending 11k monthly isn't that extravagant. Especially when the apartment rent is already 4k. Those living in real luxury will armchio.
