With a monthly salary of 15,000 yuan after tax, what is it like to live in Shanghai? If the company does not provide food or accommodation, and you can save 10,000 yuan a month for 15,000 yuan a month, it should be no problem to live a well-off life. If you want to live a more prosperous life, the difficulty is still a bit high.
To be honest, 15,000 yuan is neither high nor low. The main reason is that the rent in Shanghai is too high. Even if you rent an ordinary house in the outer ring, it will cost 2,000 yuan, not including water and electricity bills. The Internet fee, after adding these fees, is about 2,500 yuan per month.
The next step is to eat. Even breakfast, lunch and dinner cost an average of 50 yuan a day, which is 1,500 yuan a month. This does not include the cost of a good meal on any day. Then there is the transportation cost. If you don’t calculate it according to the amount, it is 10 yuan per day, which is 300 yuan per month.
Meal and transportation costs are 1,800 yuan. Plus those other expenses, it will cost at least 5,000 yuan a month. If you do it well, you should be able to save 10,000 yuan a month.
My estimated after-tax income is 15,000, which should be okay in Shanghai. It should be more than most people. If conditions permit, you can also buy a car. If the company benefits are good, you can still go out every year. It should be possible to travel and live a well-off life, and the overall experience should be pretty good.
