These jobs that we might look down upon in the mainland, we only realize when we get to Hong Kong that they are actually high-paying professions!?

As of 2019, the average salary level in Hong Kong is about 19,000 HKD, equivalent to 15,800 RMB, and the income of some common professions has also overturned our imagination, for example:

Teacher:Starting from 28,000 HKD, the highest can reach 80,000 monthly salary, and principals can earn over a hundred thousand.

Supermarket cashier:Between 11,000 HKD and 15,000 HKD.

Restaurant waiter:Around 12,000 HKD to 18,000 HKD.

Programmer:Around 40,000 HKD.

Salesperson:Around 23,000 HKD to 33,000 HKD.

It can be seen that the income of Hong Kong residents is roughly 4-5 times that of the mainland, isn't it beyond your imagination?

But even with such high salaries, many Hong Kong people never have the opportunity to go to a property sales office in their lifetime!

It must be said that the extremely high housing prices limit the imagination of Hong Kong people—what is called a thousand-foot luxury apartment is actually only 90 square meters.

When housing prices climb to over a hundred thousand per square foot, would you go to the property sales office to eat plums?

Many people mockingly ask, in land-scarce Hong Kong, why do these people still want to obtain local identity?

Because the benefits of this identity exceed your imagination! Besides, having the identity doesn't mean you have to live in Hong Kong! Isn't it nice to hold Hong Kong permanent residency while living in the mainland?

Hong Kong is a vibrant metropolis and a place for tourists to sightsee and shop. In this land where every inch is precious, some people live enviable lives, while others don't even have a place to live. Only by coming here in person can one know the real Hong Kong.
