Miserable Bonus
I know I should be satisfied even though my bonus is not much. There are people out there who is unemployed without a job. But I just cant help by envying my friend.
Her company (Jap firm under a big corporation starting with 'S') gave their staff 4.2 months of bonus inclusive of AWS (and this, I heard, is her pro rata amount as she has not completed a year!!)
I should have gone to their company man.. Can save a lot of $. I have been reading newspaper articles like "How much do you need to retire". Have been asking myself alot of questions too.
"How much will it cost me to buy a flat?"
"Will I have enough money to last in my old age?"
Maybe people will tell me why think of problems you cant foresee and cant solve? They are right in a certain way, but it will be so much easier if you have money with you...
My previous company and this one gave rather miserable bonus. NO extras.
Sigh...I have no luck at all.
