I earn nowhere near a grand a month but I have a nice apartment with cable and Internet and I run a new motorcycle. Therefore one could say I am comfortable.
However, I do have to watch the pennies every month. If an emergency arose where I needed some money, I would be in big trouble.
I cannot speak of other professions, but a foreigner is paid considerably more that a Filipino in the teaching profession.

Good luck with your decision, whatever that may be.

Sir, try to visit Brent School website if you are interested to work there., I knew there are foreign teachers there and there's also one school in our place who do english tutorials for Korean Students.

Here's the link :

That both international school and only 3-5 miles away from Santa Rosa. Most students from AUP are Koreans studying english language.
