How much do foreigners earn in China? |Shocking revelations in China

[@teflerchina.2987]

How can anybody not know how much they earn? When I was teaching my salary for the last 11 years at one school, in Guangdong, was 6500 RMB a month for 16 classes a week. Sixteen hours is too few. However, I made double that , after tax, as I worked overtime due to teacher shortage. I saved enough to buy a 500,000 home and have enough in the bank to last me the next 20 years at least. Depends on the province as each one has its own cost of living index so the salaries reflect that.

Well, I guess that's the German way of saying " Sorry, I don't exactly want to let you know...".

I taught English 2009-10 Anhui Province I was paid $10000 USD for the ten month school year.

March 2023 I just got a job offer 25K in Shanghai Pudong and everyone told me the salary is too low to accept it and relocate to Shanghai at my own cost

[@janmeissner9093]

After or before taxes?

White Natives earn a looot more money than us black non natives. Please cover that topic

[@KINGKWESI]

thanks for the suggestion, i will surely work on it.

[@King_Dong_Bundy]

White earn more than local Chinese also. At least 3x or 5x more

[@teflerchina.2987]

I worked with African and Black Americans and they were paid the same as me and more than the Chinese workers. Depends on the industry I suppose.

[@hawkjiang3361]

Basically the Chinese native workers earns the lowest among them.

[@KINGKWESI]

i was shocked but it depends on your level of expertise.

[@maximerenaud86]

I would suggest to ask more people their average salaries so we could really see what foreigners can earn in Shanghai, 60k is more on the high for a foreigner, I'm also sure that most foreigner don't do such a big salary

[@hayleybarbara1589]

Yeah its really not reflective of reality

How much a new software engineer earn en shanghai. And how much can save?

[@BobbyLoo-jr8ys]

I believe the dude making 60k RMB per month. Some teachers with side gigs can make 60-70k a month, after taxes. It is the right job for the right person.

[@MehakNKhan]

Postdoc salary is the lesser in China than mentioned salaries in video

[@heytony]

The average salary is very high...I was surprised~~

[@KINGKWESI]

Good to see you on my channel, I’ve been watching you videos. Hopefully we meet soon for a collaboration.

[@laowai2000]

The good days are well and truly over. Have lost insurance, car and driver, and housing allowance.

[@kenyup7936]

6k cny can’t even survive in Shanghai though, it just paid the bills,the rental fees is crazy there, work for a multinational company which has over 10k cny salary jobs will be much better if you’re an expat, or teaching English for the public school or international school not private school, because public schools and international schools as well has way better pay, a local private school usually is insecure and badly paid , please note far away from your coworkers who talk about the politics all the time, and don’t talk about politics to your students Btw China didn’t ban Preply, if you really can’t find any job there, teaching English online

[@muawannabe4104]

RMB 60K is around $8k a month

[@광동아재廣東大叔]

Those people you asked don't know shit about China, only very few speak decent Chinese, let alone understand what China is really like behind the curtains. You should ask those who have at least stayed for two decades or more, who speak and write Chinese fluently. And then ask them how much they make monthly in average, people who're doing their own business. Like me, for example.

[@weizhang2834]

A lot of foreigners expecilly Americans don’t speak Chinese but tell their audience what China looks like 😂

[@광동아재廣東大叔]

@@weizhang2834 你說得完全沒錯…尤其是那些美國佬更加如此。

[@kl9518]

Watch his other videos. He has interviewed foreigners who has been in China for decades.

[@JohnnysCafe_]

Kwesi interviewed the people available but you look for fault in that. It must be depressing looking at ordinary people chatting and looking for the bad.

[@tsuisiu7162]

China is huge, and like any other huge countries, what has been exposed here are just snapshots of the huge picture. Biased and ideologically motivated presentations are everywhere, including those for and against China or Chinese regime. So, let the savvy audiences decide what to believe or how to interpret it.

[@MrJchang27]

Living in China is inexpensive! So, we should measure by living quality!
