Information

$2,600 minimum for a single person.

$1000 for a decent sized rental. $300 for a car. $300 for food and fuel. $50 for utilities. $300 monthly average for travel few times a year. $100 for fitness/hobbies. $500 into savings and investments.

That's a good enough lifestyle for me.

1,700 is a joke, 960 is abusive, 500 is slavery.

Berapa th saja asal kn jangan $500. Sakit rasa nya begaji $500 ani .payah kn keep up with the standard of living masani kadang2 paksa jua belapar tangah hari untuk save budget makan sekali saja malam ..

Minimum to survive - $1000. Minimum for bit of comfort - $2500.

Comfortable lifestyle maybe $3000 after TAP/SCP etc

I’m using the 10-15% rule for car loan as a baseline and also being single.

So for simplicity that’s $300-$400 for a car per month. $1000 per month for rent if living alone. $400 for groceries. $300 for utilities (electric, water, internet, mobile). $100 for fuel. $200 for general entertainment (lepak, occasional eating out or takeaway, maybe a Netflix subscription). That leaves $400 for savings or about a 13% income savings rate which is very good. If staying with parents or sharing a place with someone or contributing to parents monthly, of course the budget would shift here and there.

As someone mentioned earlier, really depends on lifestyle choice. You could earn less and spend less, have a higher savings rate and still live a comfortable life depending on your situation

jangantah sabut $3k minimum...kan mau minimum gaji $1500 keatas pun msani payah2an.anjirr

$2k if single, $4k if married

• slightly comfortable lifestyle aka strictly 3-4 dine outs, $300 groceries run, below $800 car loans, sub $1000 house rental, no kids and can still have savings 👌🏻

For a good lifestyle, a minimum of $2500 and that is if you’re single & live rent-free

Min of $2,000 (after deduction SAP).

Applicable for 2.5-3 years working experience & married.

Lifestyle is not about how you spend it, it's the commitment you will be need to be having in order to survive your life.

example

Problem #1: No car Cause: you can't go anywhere or go to work or send your anak to day care/school Solve: Rent/Car Loan

Problem #2: Full House with other family member(s) tinggal 1 bumbung/Balum dapat perumahaan Cause: Not living comfortably/No Place to stay Solve: Rent/House Loan

Problem #3: None Family/Parents availability to take care of the kid(s) Cause: kid(s) unsupervised Solve: by sending your kid(s) to daycare/school

[not all have this problem, ada husband kerja yg bagus, wife can stay home jaga the kid(s) tpi kalau wife have to cari mata usin jua untuk menampong hidup? how?]

From the comments minimum wage somehow means living a lavish lifestyle
