You have not added your wages, PUB bills yet lehOriginally posted by Aveme:yes they earn alot,particularly so when they do not need to pay 20% of their earnings into a CPF account.
think about it,if the average price of a plate of food from a hawker is about $3 and this hawker sell an modest average of 200 plate per day,that is already $600 per day or $18000 per month.A few thousands for rental and a few thousands for the cost of the raw food and it is likely they still have maybe 4-5k in profit left
haha ok,even if added,they still do earn alot.But it is really hard work to be a hawker.Standing up in the stall for an average of 12 hours per day.Originally posted by sbst275:You have not added your wages, PUB bills yet leh
