A janitor would earn that, or more, it's true. He also has to pay very high rent, health insurance, car payment, gas for the car, etc etc etc. Most foreigners are unburdened from that and unless we're earning more than (I think) $95000 a year, we don't have to pay taxes either. A foreigner earning $18000 a year in China can save more money than someone earning $40000 a year at home. Also, college educated doesn't mean you're going to get a good job or that your major is in high demand. In China, if your degree is in demand (mathematics, physics, economics, etc etc etc) you can work at an international school and save double what you would save in the US. 10000RMB/month is extremely low for those types of schools.
