Dear Bro Shanghian,
You are really think like a local liao. What you have said is absolutely right.
For that amount, I will not hesitate to buy a property here in Shanghai.
Bro Shanghaitan said is true as well.
Bro greatnyc can really check with them if you still unsure. By the way, if you are looking at apartment in Puxi, I can help you. For US$6.5K/month is really a lot, you can stay at the famous Hua Shan Gongyu and still got excess.
Welcome to Shanghai.

Cheers!
SG

Wah Lan! Bro Greatnyc,

Yr Housing budget, does it mean the housing allowance given by yr company? If so, I saw oreli also drooling man! U must be in a very very senior position lah, either CXO, or sum director position?

I'm pretty sure this can't be a spore company, cos dun tink they r so generous. The last offer that I have last year for a position that can be almost considered as GM for posting to China, the whole package is even less than yr housing allowance, and is in S$ summore!

Sigh.............diff ppl diff mia, or my standard or ability must be damn fuckup to get those rubbish offer.

Sori abt the above bro, juz that I saw yr posting oreli, really feel that I'm so bloody pathetic.

Yo Bro Shanghaitan, how r u man?

If u never mention, I also forgotten that it is the 7th day of the 7th month today. Well, guess it is normal to a single guy like me, sumtime also forget abt feb 14, the angmoh valentine.

Let see, can write sumthing on this or not:

七月初七七巧节，
喜鹊相连把桥接，
牛郎得与织女见，
无奈一年只一天。

一天也还算不错，
远胜在下独自过，
单身贵族不好做，
逢年过节倍失落。

Hi Bro tionggoklan!
I'm fine.. thank you... how have you been?

Single? Well.. SO AM I !! No family by my side, no GF, no Cows to drink milk from.. hahahaha.. What's worse is that I'm still stuck in office.. sigh.. it's true Bro greatnyc has a wonderful package that's out of this world.. and we're stuck in some job that's getting us no where.. at least, that's hold true for me.. not sure about you though.. hahaha.. so I think I better correct my above phrase to "I'm stuck in some job that's getting ME no where"... hahhaha

Anyway, glad to see you back in full force with yet another wonderful poem for all bros to read..

Cheerio~!

Yo Bro,

Me same, no gf, no cows, no milk also, plus no job, no income, then still plus plus no luck, so is sibei cham!

Well, stuck to a job that gets u no where is still better than no job to stick to, hahahaha. So u still better than me lah. Aniway, we r not here to compare rite? Juz that I see what bro greatnyc has posted is reali sibeh +++-kong ah, thus the comment, that's all.

So u today OT ah? Since its 7/7, take a break lah n relax lah. Shanghai is a wonderful place wah, juz go out jalan x2, who knows, u might end up wif some1 tonite. But this veri unlikely to happen in spore, so no need for me to go out, hahahaha.

七月初七七巧节，
莫要加班去逛街，
或有幸与桃花结，
所有苦闷今夜解。

Hello Bro shengge,

Happy Valentine Day a la chinois!

Wow a housing budget of US$6.5 a month, that is more than what I made as Gross Salary in a month. Well, we are born different!

How, I am very Ch Nao now stuck in this lousy low pay job reading papers. I may be up north sooner than I though and hope to see you there.

Regards

PTR

Dear Bro PTR,
I thought of telling this Big Bro greatnyc for RMB6.5K he can get a nice place liao, lot of excess to solve the Ch Nao matters....
My friend posted to Beijing only given US$4K/month for 2yrs, after that he has to settle himself remaining two years. Well, all the best to him.
Just concluded the deal with the customer, free now. But really sad to be in this outskirt town, staying at a 5 stars hotel with no shops around. It is really worst than to stay at this Crown Holiday Hotel (not Crown Holiday Inn), RMB140 with broadband in Shangdong.
Really sianz here, will take a taxi out to see see look look, tomorrow going back to Shanghai. Sorry that I was busy that cannot make a trip to SGP as I would like to.
Catch up with you again.
SG

[greatnyc]

Gd evening all Brothers. Really hope to meet up with you guys sometime in Oct. I am sure I will need lots of advice and help from all of you then.

I will inform you guys when I am up in Shanghai for a look-see visit sometime early Sep. I will definitely be sourcing for a place to call home then.

Again, thank you all.

So Bro, no luck last nite? Nvm, u r in dragonland, plenty of chances man, not like me in sillypore, harder than striking 4D 1st prize.

Yup, agree wif u, we both see Bro greatnyc very the up lah! So must write sumthing abt it:

NYC在找房屋，
预算美金六千五，
小弟读了好羡慕，
自叹无能兼命苦。

读了十五年的书，
加上十来年忙碌，
若有月薪六千五，
做啥工作都心服。
