That's a whole lot more than most families here in the Philippines bring home.
Certainly getting close to 50 percent of the total income for those in great paid jobs even in Manila
Let's forget the costing side, let's just look at energy usage.
Even today that's a lot of energy getting consumed.
Where on earth did that energy go?
Was the AC was running flat out 24/7?
Was there a powerful water heater running?
How much energy do you consume here in UK? And what are the main factors to account for such differences between the usage in UK and Philippines?
Putting the consumed monthly 1150 kWh into UK costing terms at today's cost of say 14p per kWh that would cost £161 per month, £483 per quarter, £1932 per year.
£40 per month UK electricity usage comes out at 285kWh
Based on that 14p per UK unit.

That's not so much higher than my Philippine usage.
But it's far far away from your 1150 kWh usage.
