dont reveal and dont ask for their own... make everybody dey their lane


because if u ask them and they tell u theirs, then u must declare urs

if u lie about urs and they find out the truth u are in big trouble

if u dont tell them urs, u are in bigger trouble

so it is better u stay on ur lane.... most importantly



TRUST NO ONE

Hello everyone,

I am the only black person working in my work place in Asia. My salary is bigger than that of the locals due to my experience and educational value.

The locals are always want to know how much I earn as salary.

They are friendly, we don’t have issues as everyone minds their business/work.

I am comfortable with the salary. Should I reveal my salary to them?

Don't ever make that mistake of telling them, why are they curious to know? Something is fishy, be careful how you keep your items including your appointment letter, when you were hustling In school where were dey? Be careful with those guys.

You are a potential danger to them due to your vast experience and knowledge

Then, why do you want to expose your self to them

Forget about the face, the mind is sealed and you can't really tell what's hidden in their individual minds

Don't disclose anything to them about your income, let them go to the account section and find out themselves

We have to learn to keep some secrets to ourselves so that our enemies won't get at us easily

How come you know that you earn more than them and they dont. Also, do you hold the same position /rank as your curious colleagues? It could either of these scenarios
1. Management has lied to you and you that you earn more. You may actually be earning the same wages or even less.
You may also not be taxable in the same manner as them.

2. There are certain things that you do that suggest a higher lifestyle than your colleagues thus their interest.

Whatever the case may be. Discuss with the Human Resource department about what the policy of the firm is on sharing pay information. Their response could give u a better insight on what your next line of action should be.

The only situation I will reveal my current salary to a colleague is when I already secured a better job else where with better salary.

I have lived with them in time past and they are very bad ,they watch your dressing and know when you change wrist watch or shoe.just be low profile and secretive and don't make any mistake at all.

Don't even think of it. Sometimes in life, discretion is the key to keeping your money in tact. I'm sure you like your money in tact.
Discretion in this case might be key in keeping his life intact, given the history with Asians.
