I understand some of the bloggers are housewife,
Do you think about this if your hubby cannot work?

Just to do some survey see how many people realizes this problems.

I'll choose worker - Why? Worker gets fixed salary month in month out.

Boss has to scratch head if no money to pay at the end of the month... and worry bout the expenditure, overhead and at times, ONE MAN SHOW! Work like idiot to pay the workers :P

Got choice? be a housewife :)

Merryn said...

Be a blogger that earns money shiok jugak! Happy happy shiok shiok... money in da bank :) Cheers

ChloeRuoyi said...

I choose worker. I like my job to be predictable, routined and comes with a fixed salary.

I don't mind being a boss at home though :)

1. Your saving account more than 6 months of your salary? YES
2. If something bad happen and you cannot work anymore, what can you do?
I HAVE MY SAVINGS AND MY INSURANCE POLICIES.
3. What prevention you will do before it happens?
ALREADY. SCRIMPED & SAVED and BOUGHT LIFE & ACCIDENT INSURANCE.

suituapui said...

P.S. Btw, I'm a worker...not a boss.

Donna said...

Donna said...

like sui tua pui said... buy insurans.. life insurans, accident, sickness and etc... =.=

Tekkaus said...

But insurance....put aside as much savings as possible. :p

uLi.佑莉 said...

I am worker also. All the while, I support woman to have their own career ge wor....and also be financially independent!

CH Voon said...

Merryn: yes, it is good to wait every end of month. But, if boss want to fire you suddenly? Boss has big responsible but he earn more money. for blogging, if you damn popular then income is good too but if not.... susah.

CH Voon said...

ChloeRuoyii agree some workers have same thinking like you. it is true but if you want more money, it is hard. I want to be home boss too.

CH Voon said...

Wendy: hehe buy new house is good but it is a commitment as well. if you not income suddenly, how u pay for the house loan? what is the solution you prepare for.

CH Voon said...

manglish: you always play safe. i guess this is apply to most of workers and bosses. as a boss, i dont think they willing to work for others after he be a boss before.

CH Voon said...

suituapui:You are great teacher and able to answer the question correctly! This is the answer for me too. This is the only way?

CH Voon said...

Donna: same apply to me. I think most of people will do this...

CH Voon said...

Tekkaus: insurance... nowadays, i realizes almost most of people not very anti insurance like before. Maybe, i need to change my job to be insurance agent gua hahaha

CH Voon said...

uLi: agree, it is better because every month not need get money from hubby.

Cynthia said...

oh... I just have to answer this... coz I have been a worker, and something 'good' happen that I have to stop work for a year.. the answer to your questions..

1. Your saving account more than 6 months of your salary? NO

2. If something bad happen and you cannot work anymore, what can you do? if I am not cripped, I can still work from home (I can bake)muahah.. if I am cripped, then my insurance is enough to survive me...

3. What prevention you will do before it happens? Hmmm... savings, insurance and continue to generate income and investment from the money you get from the insurance.. :D

CH Voon said...

Thank you Cynthia!

I will take your answer as one of my refer. But, i need to do something rather than bake :P Most of people, they bought insurance to cover them self. It is a good start, i feel lucky i did it as well.

Naomi said...

Don't put all eggs in one basket. Saving enough to survive 6 months without working, I have. If buying a house, remember to buy loan insurance too. If get fired, can just do any work while looking for suitable work.

CH Voon said...

Ghosy Nana: Agree with ur opinion. but one things we never think about it... if our ages getting old, it is very difficult to find a job...

gus said...

I'm a worker.

But my saving hasn't come to that much.

Something bad is covered with my life/saving policy and epf, fingers crossed.

Preventive measure = always stay safe and healthy, good HSE policy.

CH Voon said...

gus: i always be told to have this saving more secure. if you have family, i think epf and saving policy enough for this?

mmm not easy to stay safe and healthy boh... i know someone really care of their health but end up attack by cancer.

BoeyJoey said...

i'm a worker lo...

1. Your saving account more than 6 months of your salary? Yes

2. If something bad happen and you cannot work anymore, what can you do? if i am still able to work, i'll stay at home and sew to sell online! (my dream actualy). if i am no more able to work, i'll have to depend on my insurance & kwsp. for my kids, they have their eduplan to support their studies to some extent.

3. What prevention you will do before it happens? save more! make sure well insured. in case tai kat lai si, we already have a will to name my kids' guardian. think that's all we can do, other times take precautions/ be careful when able to... now life is more valuable when have family & kids :-).

CH Voon said...

BoeyJoey:wah... look like you are good financial mummy! I guess ur jobs scope is accountant right :p

You give me good advice! Need to figure out what is the prevention i have to do...

Thank you very much for ur advice.

Worker or Bozz still you need reserves to last you at least more than 6 months. Life is so uncertain, worker may lose a job and bozz's biz may bungkus. Buy sufficient insurance, save heavily or invest wisely. Mama used to say 'store enough firewood for rainy days'. To retire comfortably one need at least a million RM and its scary to know not many has even reached half the amount before retirement..tQ.

Is this a trick question? :) Hehe..

Both have their own sets of advantages and disadvantages.
