StreetCowboy Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) I assume that is after converting school fees, accommodation, travel, health insurance car etc. to its monetary value? And before tax? Are you counting only those amongst us working legally, or all the 'virtually overseas' residents as well? SC EDIT From the bands offered, I think you are implicitly assuming that none of us are migrant Burmese construction workers or equivalent...

Spoonman Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Is this gross or net base salary. Should items like Car/house/spouse/schooling/maid/driver/caretaker allowances be included ? What about other items like flights home/private medical cover/yearly bonus ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he meant if he multiplied his pretax salary by three he could get into the 20 - 30 K band.

SC well the bottom as listed is actually 500k a month, so I guess he is saying he earns 1.5 million a month, maybe he can tell that guy with 3million usd how to budget his retirement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, only a paltry 37.5k on the last rodeo. Not even 1.2mill baht.... sorry for the mistake. Must put new batteries in the calculator. Stuff it! I'll buy a new one.

overherebc Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Does the OP work for a finance company that will advise you where to invest your money and make a fortune from it. Usually that's the king of person who wants to know what you earn, apart from alot of ladies who seem to find it extremely important to know. By the way my income is sufficient.

Holysteel Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I do not believe that 25% are in the '500,000 baht" per month range.. This is totally bull... But i do believe that majority of 'working' expats here in Thailand falls in the 15,000 baht to 30,000 baht range per month. Management expat from 30,000b all the way up till 200,000 baht (very rare, unless Big Multinational corporation sent you here to be based in Thailand) For the rest of you expats who have a business here in Thailand, ranging from a small bar up to a big Maldives kind of resort to an airport. Well what can i say... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
