460k/mo salary (28 years old) male - ask me anything

Hi everyone, gusto ko lang i-share dito yung recent wins ko.

Lumakas lang loob ko mag-share kasi natutuwa ako sa mga kapwa ko winners dito and most are breadwinners like me, and their wins are deeply resonating to me.

- 8 years ago, 10k lang salary ko.
- After a year naging 15k, then after another year naging 25k. (in the span of 3 years ginapang ko talaga lol)

Pandemic came i was so scared to move out of that company kasi sa fear and uncertainty ng panahong yon. 25k a month feels high, but my friends who left the company told me it's worth it to try other companies. They told me they are getting paid 40-70k already after leaving the company.

I tried applying, then 40k was the offer after acing the interview.
- i quickly resigned and accepted the 40k
- after a year i asked for a raise to 70k HAHA it wasn't approved HAHA!
- so i jumped to another company they offered me 70k kasi yun ang asking ko (I aced the interview again)

so after a year sa company na yun i asked for a raised 110k, i was surprised kasi they agreed! Kasi sa prev company dinefend ko na at lahat lahat di parin approved kaya nagulat ako na inapproved nila agad dito after sabihin sa client LOL

Fast forward, I learned to work as a freelancer. Nag-hanap akong ibang clients. I have 1 from US and 1 from Australia.

- US pays me $6k in USD (maraming ginagawa dito medyo kapagod lang ng konti)
- AU pays me $1.5k in USD (wala halos ginagawa here parang 10 hours per month lang)

$7.5k in total, i left my 110k Pesos job na, so i have 2 jobs nalang so I could focus on these 2.

$7.5k = P459k~ at this age is crazy.

Yes namamahalan parin ako sa starbucks so minsan 1 kape lang kami ng partner ko haha!

di ako bumibili ng car na brandnew kahit na kaya naman. Marami pa akong gusto sabihin pero I will save them for later!

All glory to God!

460k/mo salary (28 yo) male

Hi everyone, I just want to share my recent wins here.

I became more confident to share because I'm happy for my fellow winners here and most are breadwinners like me, and their wins resonate deeply with me.

- 8 years ago, my salary was only 10k.
- After a year it became 15k, then after another year it became 25k. (over the span of 3 years, I really worked hard, lol)

When the pandemic hit, I was so scared to leave that company because of the fear and uncertainty at that time. 25k a month felt high, but my friends who left the company told me it's worth trying other companies. They said they are earning 40-70k already after leaving the company.

I tried applying, then 40k was the offer after acing the interview.
- I quickly resigned and accepted the 40k.
- After a year I asked for a raise to 70k, HAHA it wasn't approved, HAHA!
- So I jumped to another company that offered me 70k because that was my asking (I aced the interview again).

So after a year at that company, I asked for a raise to 110k, I was surprised because they agreed! Because at my previous company, I defended for it and still wasn't approved, so I was shocked that they approved it right away here after telling the client, LOL.

Fast forward, I learned to work as a freelancer. I found some other clients. I have 1 from the US and 1 from Australia.

- US pays me $6k in USD (I have a lot of work here, it's a bit tiring)
- AU pays me $1.5k in USD (I almost don't do anything here, it’s just about 10 hours per month).

$7.5k in total, I already left my 110k Pesos job, so I just have 2 jobs now so I could focus on these 2.

$7.5k = P459k~ at this age is crazy.

Yes, I'm NOT spending a lot at Starbucks so sometimes my partner and I just have 1 coffee, haha!

I'm not buying a brand new car even though I can. I have a lot more to say but I will save them for later!

All glory to God!
