For example. My sister and her husband both work. Together after deduction they have R32k. They bought a house for R673k and both their kids is in school one primary and the other start his first year in high school. Sometimes they have +R400 left or -R700 in red at the end of the month. Groceries take big bite, fuel for work and school, lovely land tax and house installment, municipality, water&electricity. Sometimes big brother need to help them. Luckily their vehicles is paid off. I see many new white people in South Africa loose their jobs by retrenchment or the business owners close shop and move out of South Africa. In the agriculture sector I work in is getting harder for everyone for manufacturing and farmers produces.

The average house price in S.A. is 1.4 million and the average wage is 28k which as a couple would amount to 56k per month. Also the average household size in S.A. is 3.4 people. The monthly repayment is 14 584 on the 1.4 mortgage.

Bodacious how many South Africans receiving R28k each month. How any receive R16k each month and we can go from R10k, R8k, R6k, R4k, R2,800 R350 each month out of the 63 millions people in South Africa. That small group of R28k is not even close to 40%. Out of the 7.7million what pay taxes is only 43% what receives the promising R28k per month.

Plenty people earn 28k ...to be in the top 1% you would need 160k a month. or net wealth of 4.4 million. There are 350k high income individuals in S.A. Most of the people I know earn between 40~60k per month. My gardener from Malawi he earns 5k per month
