[QUOTE="GT3, post: 2302905, member: 10183"] [COLOR=black]meraboy, unfortunately my fren, u got the whole point of my post wrong (before I even clarify my point, lets jus say that I do agree with something in ur post) anyway, my whole point is not talking abt where is cheaper, I mean if I were to say that I would probably say we live in some poorer countries for cheaper goods. Instead my point is, disposable income, purchasing power and standard of living, while they are different in certain ways they are however closely link, let me elaborate in the following paragraph let use back the same example, UK. Dispoble income after conversion is alot higher compared to msia, but if you work there, and therefore pay the tax there, and hence pay for all other living expenses there, ask yourself or rather your relative, what is the amount left?
