    In light of our current economic situation, What do you guys think is the reasonable Monthly Net Salary of a Household of Four with 2 young kids?
    This should be exclusive of tax and assuming no Home Rental and Car Mortgage.

    Thanks in advance for you inputs.

    with two kids? nowadays to have a decent means of living just above the survival 3-meal-per-day indicator, the husband and wife should have a total income of 45k (1000 USD) for the basic food clothing shelter plus education and pay the utility bills, rent/morgage and in my opinion - a modest car...

    pag dyan sa NCR, dapat 50k net for a decent comfortable quality of life.

    pag sa provinces/small cities naman, 30k sobra sobra na.

    talk about income...

    from today's business mirror: Our middle class is shrinking (which is already small to start with)
    http://businessmirror.com.ph/10292007/headlines02.html

    The people who authored the study defines middle class as "those families with present annual income of P251,283 to P2,045,280"

    that's minimum P20,000 a month.

    Decent living is subjective. What could be decent living for 1 person could be bare survival for another.

    I'd rather think of it this way ---- After taking care of your family's basic needs, and u still have leftover money for hobbies or luho... then that's decent living.

    I agree with this. Every one has their own definition of decent living.
