I've broken down yun amounts by percentages of the 5 items
1. Living expenses (30%) - 4,500
2. Interpersonal circle (20%) - 3,000
3. Learning fund (15%) - 2,250
4. Holiday fund (10%) - 1,500
5. Investment fund(25%) - 3,750
Looking at those figures, it would be a bit difficult in real life to live with that budget. There are just too much unexpected expenses out there. In addition, he expect you that on your second year, your salary has grown at least 65%. Again, not so realistic.
