A guy that is earning 13k per month telling us something important

Someone work in IT, getting 13k after ten years, left me this comment:

1998 - graduated with BSCS from 3rd world uni

2008 - work for MNC in Singapore on employment pass, monthly is 13k and no, I'm not a manager (though pay grade is senior manager I'm an individual contributor), just good at what I do. I expect another 1k increment this year, I know it's not much relatively to my monthly pay but hey it's ok lah. Also get 1mnth AWS and about 5-8k bonus every quarter. BTW, I never ever bargained for salary or promotion. I suck at negotiation (that's why don't shop at markets, stick to malls with price tags). Getting things done seems to work like a charm with my boss, my boss's boss and boss of my boss's boss.
And finally, he / she tells us something very important:

Remember, getting irreplaceable or getting results that make bosses look really really good work wonders.
So now you know how to get 13k per month..............
