Budget planning tips
- Add 20–30% on top of salary as a baseline for statutory + benefits in SEA markets
- Recruitment agency fees are one-time but significant — factor them into year-1 cost
- Equipment can be amortised over 2–3 years if you reuse hardware
- For contractors, remove statutory contributions but add invoice markup (15–25%)
