So I clear $6k a month after tax. Half of that goes to the House mortgage, expenses and others is roughly $1500-$2000 a month (Food,petrol,bills,insurance,entertainment and other bits and pieces) so i am left with really $1000 a month spare, imagine another person i would take care off (wife) plus few babies it might just be enough. I am going to sell My bike soon. Do you know how much a wedding/mahr/gifts and gold/honeymoon cost these days??? This country money does not have baraka wallahi easy come easy go.abakar20 wrote:Midrigeez, break it down for me how exactly you'd become poor, especially if you're earning nearly 4k a month.MidriGeez wrote:Equity:

$400-500 A week (Business In oz) In 4 way partnership. I get taxed alot
$100-$150 a week (Rent dividends from o'seas Properties) I use this money to buy gifts or send to Family.
I will be poor once i get married and i start poping kids, Life in OZ is not cheap for family let alone single people.

No my life style is not expenisve, i just invested in few things that i would be comfortable maybe when im 50-60, and leave few things for my kids inshallah when i die and if i have kids. but now i have committed myself to investments for the next 10-20 years so its not my lifestyle its my choice. without the House i would have half my income into my pocket.hyperactive wrote:his lifestyle is expensive. he has saving...lol you are richer than many hard working that unable to save a penny , my family one of them. that is why i want to life just humble lifestyle. once you caught into this materilized life you go crazy and no amount of money is enough!

No, I do consulting for private companies and NGOs too. WHen I do go to shiddy places like SOmalia, I charge more for hazard allowance. But its hard work with lots of risk hence the high pay off. Am on the fence on going to Pakistan.
