I just looked up the average salary in Phil. It showed a school teacher in on just under 15,000 P a month. If that's correct I am at a loss to understand. It would mean a schoolteacher and anyone earning less would never be able to afford a child!
Would someone please explain where my thinking must be wrong.
powdered milk is £7 a time in the uk john, and it would only last a wk, so you can say £30 a month just for milk. clothes and shoes are not cheap either..Originally Posted by johncar54
depends on what you feed and clothe your child in, but £150 a month seems high to me, i would have thought £100 a month
NO JOhn they can afford still, you maybe surprise even 2 or more kids they can surviveits just depend on the way of living they got we call it DISKARTE LANG yan! wise budgeting
that's a Filipino a survivor
Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.
Your right teacher salary per month is at 15k a month, that is the reason they hard to coup with the extra happenings in life
My kids guardian now is a teacher earning 15k a month a husband working in San Miguel beer Company 280 per day/8 hours with a 3 daughters, and she just keep crying at night lack of budget in her daily food, so she sell some candies in her classroom and the husband is working 12 hours in a day and he also work saturday and sunday whole year round, thats why hubby said they had no life at all
Before they rent house 1800 a month, electric bill 800, water month 200, daily food for 5 person she said her budget is 200 php
Now I took them to be guardian of my 2 kids, they dont need to pay for house, no bills to pay,( I pay the elec bill, connection and so on) and they say it was big relief for her, and my 2 kids allowance is like her salary at a month

I read what I type, lol you might think I fed them (her whole family)
, the food still thier own, the only thing she just escape is renting the house because she look after my kids,and the electric bill as well, but not thier (5 people) food, they still buy thier food
ok as a new mum i spend about less than £100 for my baby for all his basic needs such as milk and nappies. The cost of milk here is less than £8/month (x4) and I spend about £40 for his nappies and wipes. Personally, I don't buy my son clothes/toys every month cos I know i am not helping him if he gets used to it.
So if I spend less than £100/month for my son the fact that i am here in the UK how much more in the Philippines where the cost of living is not as expensive as in here?

It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good to check up once in a while to make sure you haven't lost the things that money can't buy.
No, lol dont get me wrong she still buy thier food, lol only rent for the house she free and the bills, besides its not all the money, i know it was the big responsibilty that I gave them to look after my kids, its hard to put that in any one's shoulder, taking care of the kids not your own, give and take ika nga as what they sayWow ate juliet

Your friend sounds cool Mrs M,theres a lot of trust between you,even when your son is here never forget her,utang na loob
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
