Go and have a lie down your overvthinking things. 

If you think less than $9 a day is a good salary then I really don’t know what to say.......

You just dont get it. You are comparing another country. How much do you think the president gets here per year? not the same as an American president is it? Salary is what it is and in this country like all are set to the country. Minimum wage in the US is far lower than Australia for example , something like less than half in the US.  You do realise that a waiter here earning say 400 a day feels like he is doing well.

If you want to give your money where it is needed and you dont need to go far out of Makati. Down a side street to a vendor who is happy if they can get a fish and some rice for the day to feed the family.

Anyway, I'm done with this topic.

I know plenty of people here who would very much like to earn $9 a day.It depends on the local economy as to how much people earn and in a lot of places it does not matter one bit what the minimum wage is.Where I used to live 2 1/2 years ago, a waitress was lucky to get 150 peso a day, as for tips the management used to keep them.Some of the girls serving in the local market were getting 100 peso a day.So yes to them $9 a day would be fantastic.

Don't smoke in bed. Good tip.

If you're smoking in bed you probably should slow down a little! :tongue:
