5797 rmb/month netto - Is it possible to survive? by elpetrik

Hello everyone, I was reading a few posts about living expenses in Shanghai and I am quite perplexed. I understand that it depends on your lifestyle a lot. But I got a job offer for 8000rmb/month brutto = -18% insurance -20% taxes = 5797rmb/month ...

liza-zhao

Hi elpetrik: You can ask more salary. You have a master degree. 5797RMB is too little for this. And It is very hard to live in Shanghai with a budget of this amount. Good luck to you. Read More
