How much do you earn?

I am surprised to see how little (as a % of their incomes) people pay for rental. So I wonder what you people are earning (a month).

I mean personal salary, not household salary.

If you don't know exactly because you earn a commission, how much did you earn last year, or how much do you think you are going to earn?

Including housing allowances, school fees, flights home, COLA, etc?

Although I guess anyone who's on an expat package like that will be in your top category anyway...

Personally I do really think it matters how much people earn. What you do with it that really counts.

Salary is a means not an end.

This is not to say that I do not have a reasonable salary. Just that for me salary does not equate to much. I'll crawl back into my hole now.
