    mga kuya tlga.. lets give the thread starter the benefit of doubt. who knows, maybe he does earn that much.. maybe he is a good nurse.. maybe he did save a lot of money in 3 years. its his hard earn dough and its up to him to splurge it the way he sees it.

    anyhow, he has the estimate on how much he will spend in case he wants that RR or lambo.

    maybe envious lang tayo kasi wala tayo that much in savings..kasi..we have many loans to pay, responsibilities, family, etc. let him live the way he wants to live..i just hope he still remembers where he came from and whatever blessing he got...i hope he doesnt waste it as anyones future will always be a "cloud".

    Kayo naman, if he's living with his mom, he could save up to 3000 or 4000 a month, and if he bought Cisco stock 5 years go or maybe got into Google early...

    a little piece of advice...buy a house first. it would look really bad if you're driving around with a lambo or rolls and still living with your parents.

    seriously though, you may be able to buy such vehicles, but the price of ownership may be too overwhelming, even if you make $130K a year. there's a reason why only millionaires, with lots of disposable income, can afford such vehicles. it's good to realize a dream, but if we are not careful, it could easily turn into a huge nightmare.

    TAMA!!! maybe he's next thread would be "HELP ME!!!!, how much to bring in a house from malibu to Phils? so I'll have a place to park my lambo and RR"

    yup. just give him a benefit of the doubt. maybe misplace priorities lang sya. or some people na medyo na-amaze sa sudden pour ng $ sa kanya. lets observe.

    You can't really blame the other tsikoteers for being cynical. The empirical data kasi cannot support the OP's intention.

    26 y/o, RN, earning about US$130k per annum, but working for only 3 years.
    And he intends to buy a US$ 320k luxury car.

    Now, if he started with: "I just won in the state lottery. I can now afford to buy a supercar. How much do I have to spend to have it shipped in RP?...."

    Then he would have gotten more decent replies, and not incredulity and biting sarcasm.

    Mga tsikoteers pa. Personally, I'm doubtful. But at least I'm not insulting. Let's keep it that way, shall we, chaps?

    USD130,000 x 3yrs = USD390,000.00.

    are registered nurses in the US have free board and lodging?

    At madaming mahilig mag compute dito sa tsikot

    the first post he posted already made me skeptical and im thinking that this person is only bluffing. It's really not possible for let's say that "X" amount of money times the 3 yrs of being a nurse plus OT/night differential and minus say benefits like Health insurance, social security or FICA and federal taxes it still doesn't sound right.

    i don't know maybe he inherited a big sum money or doing some business on the side we all don't know...

    OT: even though i don't have money to buy a luxurious vehicle i can say that i have a house to live & i don't rent,, i own it!

    John, we are not insulting here. Just commenting based on realities (as you said) that you presented. We would be so much proud for you if you could really buy any of those cars mentioned. Because we know that a fellow Filipino made it to the exclusive league of owning an exotic car. And I'm sure that whoever you entrust that car here in the Philippines while you're there in the States working hard would be so much proud with the most "matangos nose".

    Hmmmm....

    What's your budget first in buying a vehicle here in the Philippines? Including tax & other fees (importation, custom, shipping)?

    A Ferrari F430 will cost around P15M all-in while it is just around P6M for an H2.
