You are from Meizhou, so you should know Xingning and Pingyuan. I am an employee of a road and bridge construction company. From 2013 to 2016, I was fortunate enough to participate in the construction of the Pingyuan to Xingning Expressway, so I also stayed in Meizhou for about three years. At that time, our bidding section was next to Pingyuan County, and the project site was only about 20 minutes’ walk from the center of the county. Now let me talk about the living conditions here. The cost of living in the county is not low. A bowl of pickled noodles for breakfast costs about 15 yuan, and a rice bowl at the elegant coffee next to the cinema costs about 30 yuan, which is similar to Guangzhou. We hired local drivers, security guards and kitchen workers from Pingyuan. The driver's monthly salary was about 3,000, the security guard and cleaning staff were 2,000, and the kitchen chef was about 4,000. I feel that these workers basically have to go to work every day, but they can go home after get off work at night. When we were building culverts, due to scheduling problems for professional workers, we also invited some local villagers from neighboring villages to help with the work. The daily wages were about 100, but many people quit working because they felt it was too hard. So if your monthly salary is 4,000 and you have weekends, it should be considered pretty good. Oh, I almost forgot, let me mention the local housing prices. In 2016, the best commercial housing in Pingyuan County was about 3,000 square meters, such as Pingcheng Garden, Xintian Garden, etc., but I don’t know if the current housing prices have increased.
Meizhou is a famous city in Guangdong Province and is known as the "Hakka Capital of the World". Because it is the ancestral home of the Hakka people, it often attracts attention from all walks of life at home and abroad. So what level does a monthly salary of 4,000 in Meizhou City fall into? With reference to the "Guangdong Provincial Minimum Wage Standards for Enterprise Employees", it can be concluded that a monthly salary of 4,000 yuan is an upper-middle income locally, and the position may be a middle-level management cadre.
Meizhou is listed as the fourth category in the "Guangdong Province Minimum Wage Standards for Enterprise Employees", together with Shaoguan, Heyuan, Shanwei, Yangjiang, Zhanjiang, Maoming, Qingyuan, Chaozhou, Jieyang, Yunfu and other cities* ** is the first gear.
According to the "Standards", the minimum wage standard for Meizhou enterprise employees is 1,410 yuan per month, and that for part-time hourly employees is 14 yuan. This means that a monthly salary of 4,000 yuan is nearly three times the minimum wage standard, and is a medium monthly income relative to the standard.
Coordinates: New County. I am from Meizhou. I used to work in Shantou with a monthly salary of 6,500. Considering that it is relatively close to home, I have been back for less than a month and my current monthly salary is 5,000.
Let’s talk about your first feelings:
1: The overall salary in Meicheng is very low, about 2300-2500 for ordinary employees and about 3000 for public institution employees, but the consumption level is lower than that in Shantou High, taking fresh food as an example, vegetables are generally 3-4 yuan/jin more expensive than Shantou, meat is about 2-5 yuan/jin, fruits are about 10 yuan/jin, and a casual breakfast of noodles and soup is 7 yuan.
2: The ratio between housing prices and income is not far apart. Nowadays, the housing prices in Meicheng basically start with 7, and one month’s salary is not enough to buy half a square meter, which is very scary
3: Taking me as an example, my current income is completely insufficient for expenses. Some even add the monthly negative equity, mortgage loan and the expenses of two children, which makes me very stressed.
So what level do you want to say? From a macro perspective, it is a middle-income level. In terms of the national economic level, it is a bottom level. But the actual situation is that poor families basically have nothing left.
Finally, people from Meicheng are welcome to complain
Located in Fengshun County, Meizhou, it is a public institution. It has received nearly 4,000 yuan so far, and is being squeezed 200 yuan per month for performance, which will be distributed uniformly at the end of the year. I have withdrawn 500 yuan recently, and by then I will have 4,500 yuan. As long as there is no loan pressure, it will be fine. I have 1,070 in provident fund every month, and I can withdraw it once every six months. But I have to pay back a mortgage of 1,400 yuan a month, and my two children need milk powder and diapers, which costs more than 1,000 yuan a month. The property and electricity bills are miscellaneous. . .
My parents have pensions and social security, and my parents-in-law have not retired yet, so we don’t have to bear the burden. They also know my situation and refuse to accept the money, otherwise the pressure will be even greater! My wife is also in a public institution, and her salary is about the same as mine. She drives the car and is basically responsible for maintaining it. We each manage our own finances. Except for her children’s clothes and toys, she basically doesn’t invest in household items. She doesn’t have Alipay or WeChat. Order a bank card and contact me for all online shopping and mobile payments. . . I feel like my children are already under a lot of pressure even before they go to kindergarten. I want to do something to make extra money but I have no clue. Confused. . .
Let me give you a reliable answer from the urban area of ??Meizhou. It does not count if you are kicked out of civil servants and public institutions. Large enterprises may have five insurances and one fund. General clerks are about 3,000, ministerial level 4,000 to 6,000, vice president and above 6,000. to 10,000, accounting ranges from 3,500 to 8,000. Medium-sized enterprises generally have five insurances and no one fund. Clerks are worth 2,000 to 3,000, accountants are worth 2,500 to 4,000, ministers are about 4,000, and vice presidents and above are worth about 5,000 to 8,000. There is no negotiability for small businesses, and the five insurances may not be complete. The average clerk is about 2,000, the minister is about 3,000, the so-called vice president and above are about 4,000 to 5,000, and the accountant is about 3,000.
Girls. Four thousand and five, two days off. Even though I'm not married, I feel like life is still very difficult.
More than ten T-shirts. The skirt is forty or fifty. Single shoes are in the forty-fifty range, and sneakers are within five to six hundred. But the cosmetics and skin care products are basically relatively good, such as Estee Lauder Essence Eye Cream, YSL Air Cushion, TF, etc. I really don’t have the money to invest in clothes anymore.
Every month, takeout is about 15 yuan at noon, and about 15 yuan for afternoon tea, but no breakfast. That’s almost two thousand yuan a month. If you don’t go shopping or socialize, it costs about 100 to go to the movies and buy milk tea for two of you every month, at least seven or eight times a month (this is basically paid by your boyfriend). There are two thousand yuan left in the car loan. Then the private orders are unstable, sometimes two or three thousand, sometimes several hundred yuan. . . . . So the monthly pocket money is basically a private income tax, the salary is: 2,000 for the car, and the remaining 2,000 is saved. . . Of course, that's nice to say. . . Plans can't keep up with changes, so I occasionally make a purchase or buy something more expensive. It’s gone. . . . It is still difficult to save money. .
So I especially envy those girls who don’t have to think about anything, spend money on clothes and dress up every day, and also eat delicious food and have fun every day. . I envy it, but I can't bear it.
If you have a monthly income of 4,000, you don’t have to pay for a house or a car, and you can only cope with daily life, that’s fine.
Let’s talk about Meizhou’s housing prices first. Housing prices are not generally high and are completely unequal to a city’s GDP. Jiangnan real estate prices are over 10,000, and new county towns are around 7,000. Even the price of new real estate in the small town of Dabu is over 5,000.
Besides, the prices in Meizhou are higher than those in first-tier cities. It can be called a little Hong Kong.
Finally, let’s talk about GDP. According to GDP ranking, it is at the bottom among all cities in Guangdong. Due to the underdeveloped economy, the overall salary level is low, except for civil servants, teachers, tobacco, electricity, banks, etc. The salary is relatively high.
As far as I know, 4,000 in Meizhou should be at the upper-middle level in the city. In some counties, more than 4,000 is quite a lot, but in Meicheng, 4,000 is nothing. However, the consumption in Meizhou is indeed relatively high. , every time I go back to the countryside to buy things during the Chinese New Year, the money I spend on shopping is not much different from the money I spend in Shenzhen... But the pickled noodles in my hometown are really delicious
Above average! Is there such a high salary in a fourth-tier city? Believe it or not!
Since you are determined to be the King of Opportunities, then don’t care about the salary. As long as you get the salary, you will always be a migrant worker. It is impossible to make a big fortune or get rich suddenly, so, take the salary. 4,000 is essentially the same as getting 40,000 - they are all working-class people! Only by starting a business from around you, starting from the things you are familiar with and best at, can you get 4,000 yuan, 40,000 yuan, 400,000 yuan, or 4 million yuan! At that time, you won’t care about salary at all, you only care about the company’s income and the company’s development prospects—a person’s structure and core competitiveness are directly proportional to a person’s income!
