Hey Justin, whats sort of coin will you be on ??
We have an FO with wife and 3 kids, and he earns absolute crap money, about 40000HKD wage and 5000HKD housing, NO schooling assistance whatsoever. I believe his wife works part time.
I dont think they are having Moet with dinner each night ( like our richer KA/CX bretheren ) but they get by.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the CX SO package is streets ahead of the above ?
Apart from housing ( and schooling ) the cost of living is not bad, we save a fortune by not having 2 cars like back home, and most things ie phone, cable tv, groceries, going out for dinner are cheaper than back home ( oz )
Cheers
