How Much Money Do You Make?

[mark414]

I have a feeling we have a broad diversity on incomes here on the board...don't feel the need to share your name or anything, just vote.

How much money do you earn?

on edit: please kick every so often

[rocktivity]

1. Yet, at great financial sacrifice, I had these buttons made

in hopes of raising money for MoveOnPac.

:headbang:

2. kick

it appears most of us are relatively middle class americans, whatever that means anymore

[Ron Green]

3. pretty normal distribution so far. n/t

[mark414]

4. kick

who is that millionaire? will you be my friend? or if you are a straight single female, will you marry me?

[Bronco69]

6. Or if you are a gay single male

will you marry me?

[mongo]

23. If you are a gay female or male

If I get a sex change will you marry me?

If you are a straight female or gay male, will you marry me?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

5. I'm surprised

that there aren't more folks making less than 30 thou.

9. I just got a new job last week

And jumped from that first category to the next. I wanna know where the category for 'unemployed' is... 'cause we've both been in that one in the last year, too...

[Mrs_Beastman]

32. congrats!

[Nikia]

10. Most jobs around here are advertised under $30,000

Well, usually an hourly figure is given. I have not seen any jobs advertised above $60,000. I suppose most good jobs are given through the hidden job market. That means you only can get a good job around here if you have rich friends or parents or have a MD or law degree.

17. Maybe those folks

can't afford to buy a computer and pay for internet access on less than 30K a year.

:kick:

[bigwillq]

7. Less than $30,000 year

Yup, I'm just a poor gay sports writer

[HEyHEY]

25. Amen sister

I only make $25,000 Canadian to edit a paper

[ohiosmith]

8. I make big money! Unfortunately about 1/8" too big.

[Coventina]

11. Unemployed full-time student here!

:hi:

Hope there will be a job for me in a couple of years.
:scared:

[kitkatrose]

22. Heh...

:hi: I've got years of schooling left in me. In two years, grad school, here I come...

[mark414]

12. kick

i guess i should also say i'm an about to be employed full time student (start working for ACT next week)

[scarlet_owl]

13. Less than $30,000.

More like $24,000 a year. On edit: That's both my husband's wages and my disability income combined.

[amazona]

14. wayyyy below $30K

Fortunately I live in a cheap area. But are there really so many people who earn more than $30 or $40K?

[Maleficus]

15. I'm a millionaire.

</end dream>

Seriously, I have no income. None. Zip. Zero. Zelch. Nada.

Can someone spare me a buck? :(

[proud2BlibKansan]

16. Not enough

to pay for the yearly increase in health insurance.

I get a piddly 2% raise every year and by the time our insurance premiums go up, I end up bringing home LESS money than I did the year before.

:kick:

[mark414]

18. kick

once more

[mark414]

19. one last kick for the night crowd

EOM

[NightTrain]

20. I make $12 an hour and work 44 hours a week.

That's $552 a week, or $28,704 a year. That may not sound like much to some of you, but it's more than enough for a lifelong bachelor with a roommate!

[BiggJawn]

21. Bet there's more closer to 31 kilobucks than 65 kilobucks...

I have had a 2% salary increase in the last 2 years.
I'm starting to have trouble paying my bills. stuff like heat, phone, insurance, car payment....

The fucking song remains the fucking same. 4 years of damn ReTHUGlicans, and "prosperity" goes right down the fucking toilet.

well, at least I didn't have to sell my house to eat...Wait...I LOST my house!

[mongo]

24. Our family makes less than 30k

I "volunteer" here at my job 50-60 hrs/wk

The wife takes home the paycheck. The store can't afford to pay us both.

[bookfreak]

26. I'm in the 31k-65k range

But that's only because I work two full-time jobs. Otherwise I'd fall into the next lower bracket. That's pretty lame for my education and experience. I can't wait until I get my MLS.

Maybe if I had a job where I screwed people instead of helping them I could have voted "I'm a millionaire" instead.

[Night Gal]

28. I doubt you'd hit a million

Maybe if I had a job where I screwed people instead of helping them I could have voted "I'm a millionaire" instead.

It's in the 130-300K a year range if you know what you're doing
Trust me on that.

27. None Of Your Business !!! - *My Mom Told Me To Say That*

:silly:

I've been steadily moving DOWN the career ladder for the past several years. Was making over $70,000 and living in S.F. Moved for a better job (working conditions) making over $40,000 in Sacramento. Got laid off after 9\11 and was job hunting for 14 months after running out my savings, 401k, and unemployment benefits.

NOW... I have 3 jobs and make well under $30,000 a year.

Believe me when I say, that voting against Bush, for me, is personal!!!

:grr::nuke::mad:

[obiwan]

29. None. I have been unemployed for 13 months.

... according to the government, I no longer exist.

[RivetJoint]

30. Seems the "I'm a millonaire" category

doesn't fit the question. I mean you can make bewteen $130-300K AND be a millionaire. Or make over $300K and be a millionaire. Being a milionaire is a measure of one's wealth (how much do I have) instead of measure of one's income (how much do I make).

[WillyT]

31. Kick !!!

:kick:

[Q3JR4]

33. Woo hoo, it's a bell curve!

:wipes a tear from eye: my statistics prof. would be so proud of me for that.
