I answered the poll, but I ain't really gonna say. I make enough to be happy and I think that is really important. So many people always wanna make more, no matter how much they make. A lot always want more and never learn to be happy with having what they have. People feel its not enough. But I ain't living in poverty and I'm not talking about people who are. I can also say I'm living in a better financial situation then I was born into, so maybe that's why I'm so content

If you can afford to drive a Monte Carlo, with insurance and are able to put gas in it, then your doing okay.

 

Indeed !! x2

 

So true ..

 

I make about $8-$10K a year now being a student, two more years and I'll start at 6x that

 

$13/Hour at 40 hours a week, you do the math :p Most of the time I do 40 hour weeks but starting next week for a month straight we will be working 70 hours a week (10 hours a day) and im getting a raise to $15/Hour also! do the math

 

well.... in 2011 I'll be in the top 3. But I live in the left coast, a very high cost of living area.

 

My wages are not a matter of public record but close. Disney Engineering is union so the union negotiates our wages and we have no control over them good or bad. There are plenty of union contract books floating around so all you need is that and someone's seniority date and you know what they make. By contract I get a raise in two weeks. In 2011 I should make right around 50K plus benefits before taxes. For 2012 it should be close to 54K. Susan does the same job that I do but she is still an apprentice. This should be her final year of that. With her income included we should do over 80K this year. In five years she will top out and make the same as me. We both have poor spending habits and I can't tell you where most of it went other than helping to stimulate the economy. I need to get a handle on it.

 

Where is the negative option for those of us in college :P
I work part time, and during the summer, so end up making probably 10-12k a year, but also spending that boat load on tuition and what not from being in school. One more year and I'll be onto the real world though

 

Hi Member's,
I was really surprised when I checked in this morning to see all the posts from member's on this personal thread question 4-Sure...

I really just thought some member's would vote in the poll, and then I thought I would see "NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS", or another dumb poll from outer `space

Thanks for your posts, thoughts, time...I know that money isn't everything, but it sure helps when you have none.

I wish everyone enough money to enjoy a happy/peaceful life....`Space
