Food delivery person can earn $1k per week using motorbike.plus if lucky, get to bonk the deliveree too.

$700 in a month.

Say you work 20 days a month. That's $35 a day.

Very sad.

Our minimum wage in Alberta is like $16/hr.

My daughter aged 19 who works part time as a ski instructor earn more than this ex pilot.

Dont maids earn about $700 a month?

What to do? Sinkie all want to be their own boss.

I don't think it's a wise move. His initial capital for the van is already S$30k and it's a depreciating asset. At S$700 per month, it'll take 43 months just to recover that S$30k.

[maxxi]

5.5mil too little.
Singapore should be much more.

Even Hong Kong mention they have 7 mil which I doubt so. It should be more with the PRC coming in

I trust SCMP more than our media.Plus do they count those on dependent pass? SO many CECA old folks here

Lunch stolen?

and why did the hongkies riot?

I applaud your open-mindedness, but there is such a thing as a finite capability of humans to live in confined spaces.

Budget airline captain salary around how much ? 15k have or not ? he looks young I suppose he is a junior pilot.

Pilot Kenny Tay used to spend his time soaring above the clouds in a commercial airliner but those exciting days have given way to a more modest gig - driving a van that provides car-grooming and moving services.

Mr Tay, 39, is far from alone in finding himself on a different track: An air stewardess has turned to working as a shop assistant.

"I have always been interested in car grooming so I bought a 10-year-old van for $30,000 and started my business," said Mr Tay, who has named his firm Auto Xthetics.

He had also signed up with Lalamove to provide transport services.

Mr Tay, who is married with three children aged five, seven and nine, said he is grateful for support from his friends who have bought his car-grooming packages. This month, he made $700 from washing and polishing cars.

Good for him as he trying to vie a living.
But then he should have some saving set aside for raining days.
Or his wife is picking up the tabs

Never said he was captain.
but Budget airlines pilot all CMI so pay can’t be that high. Remember the mass murderer from SilkAir
