Also, according to a recent research, its better to move on to different jobs talaga pag gusto mo lumaki ang sweldo mo, instead of waiting for promotions. Max na daw ang 3 years per company.

Tama but dapat madami kang alam dito at madami kang dalang pasensya.

I kinda agree, im stuck with my first and only company for almost 10 years now. Mejo napag iwanan nako sa sweldo, kahit na 4 times nako na promote.

that's because they know they can keep you for nothing. "walang pupuntahan ito atin na for life." mag-leave ka ng 2 days, sabihin mo sa boss mo may job interview kang pupuntahan. check mo lang kung ano gagawin nya. pero para mas maganda totohanin mo na may job interview para hindi naman sayang yung leave days mo.

That depends on the company. In my previous company, maraming nandun for at least 10 years. Hindi naman napagiiwanan ng sweldo. In fact, ang problem nga is hindi sila mapirate kasi mas mataas pa sweldo nila sa offer ng iba.

Am gonna let her read this thread to pick up good ideas from the experienced guys,
though I myself is also giving her a very good vision in building up a career and eventually ending up with a high paying position (in w/c) all parents want for their child.

Well, i'll give her the decision whether she like to go MBA upon undergrad next year or find a work first.

And siguro, all I can do now is freshening up all my contact relation sa mga friends kong nasa magagandang position at kumpanya, connections matters most of the time din.

We are just a working class family, so hindi kaya ng budget na maenroll sa prestious colleges maaapektuhan ang pag-aaral ng 2 pa na nasa peivate school din.

high paying position.. actually, its an employee's mindset. living in by 15th and 30th... maski gano pa din kataas ang sweldo nyan, mataas pa din ang expenses nyan, unless he/she receives 1M/month (which is at the highest executive level, mga temang SVP and up for huge companies).

why not change her mindset to an entrepreneur's mindset? mas madami syang matututunan sa sarili nyang negosyo wherein an MBA degree will not matter, but gives off a bigger concept on business. of course she will fail, but those lessons are really helpful.

so instead of paying around 80k/sem, ipang kapital mo na lang muna sa small business nya that she can grow. pag nawala and nag fail, ok lang.... tuition fee.... and do better next time.

Some MBA schools won't accept an applicant if they have no prior work experience.

Agree ako dito.

Provide guidance but let her choose her own path. And also, let her pay for her graduate degree or tell her to apply for a scholarship.

She's an adult. She will not benefit from any pampering.

On being an entrepreneur vs employee: depende rin sa tao yan. Nganga lang ako when i read about career corporate guys at the CEO level(technically, still employees) getting tens of millions in bonuses, stock options, etc. Kahit mga EVP nakakakuha ng magandang sweldo/benefits/bonuses/golden parachute upon retirement.

Couple that with a keen eye for investment, and you could do quite well than most businessmen. Wala ka pang sakit sa ulo in running a business.

Me alam din akong nagtrabaho sa ME, worked his *$$ off for 10+ years, came back home and bought property that he rents out. i can only speculate that either he got a really high paying job, or nakatiming siya ng 1997 crisis and bought those properties at rock bottom prices. Ngayon puro basketball na lang with his college buddies ang inaatupag ^_^

Go to any exclusive subdivision (Green Meadows, Dasma, etc), very few employees there compared to businessmen.

Our CEO doesn't earn nearly as much as what some of my businessmen friends earn. And that's a CEO of a multinational already. VPs of smaller companies earn much less.
