| To give you some perspective, let me share my situation. I live with my partner who only has a part-time job at a university. Between the two of us, we make just 8.5 million won a month, which means we struggle a little bit when it comes to saving. Most months, we barely manage to put away more than 4 million won, but no one said life would be easy. Personally, I'd love it if my partner got some sort of full-time job making 3 million won a month or more. Then, we'd earn more than 10 million won a month and save 6 million a month easily. |
Funny because less than a year ago on the other site, where they now ban you from writing this kind of crap, you said this

I have a Korean girlfriend who works as a university lecturer. She makes
around 4 million won a month. She and I have also invested in stocks, which have given us about 500,000 a month return on average. Together, we make around 12.5 million won a month. But still, I'd like to get into a higher income bracket, as I mentioned above. It's possible to do it as a teacher, but, of course, it's quite difficult. |
Sorry to hear your fortunes have dropped so dramatically  Interesting that you live with your Korean GF too, though I'm a bit confused because you mentioned having a wife in other previous posts
e.g this one from Nov 2012

The few times I've caught myself driving around without my headlights on I've always had my parking lights on, meaning that my dashboard was still lit up. But I could see less confident or experienced drivers, such as my wife, concentrating so intently on the road, specifically all the cars darting around it, that they not notice their dashboard lights not being turned on. That's not such a ridiculous conclusion to draw, is it? |

Either he is 1) telling a lie, or 2) he isn't telling the truth. |
or 3) he has 3 or 4 jobs, teaching 10-12 hours/day, to make that 7 million won salary (He said if his partner made 3, that would be 10 so I'm just doing the math)
I have only met one person making that kind of coin as a teacher, and he averaged about 55 teaching hours/week, Mon-Sat. |

Wasn't implying about the salary.
Was implying about him living with his wife and his KoreanGF. |
