I was just wandering what people are making these days and what you do for a living. I am a security officer at Harrisburg Area Community College making 11,000 per year. (part time 11 per hour, all they will give me right now). As you can see I am damn poor, probably make less than everyone here. I do computer work on the side which only brings in around $300 per year.
well according to my last pay stub it says I have grossed 12,257.39 so far this year. Of course my job is one of the lousiest one'* here. I work for a commercial laundry and drycleaners.
I gross 28,000$ CAD a year before the gov takes their cut of it. Not including my car allowance of about 14,000$ a year ( not taxed).
I work on the road as a sales rep/merchandiser/ whatever you want to call it.

Please don't be pissed....
With bonus and all the other good stuff I just broke $60 (US) last year.

I really can't imagine how anyone with a family and teenage kids can afford to live on any less these days. There'* never any left over at the end of the month. Too many damn expenses !!!
I'm single, cars paid off (both the Bonne and my beater truck), no credit card debt, and I still can't seem to get much saveings built up. Not sure where it all goes, but it goes. :?
Until recently I was living check to check (as most people do, but hate it) so I put away a small chunk that I am saveing for rainy days. I also give Uncle Sam whatever he wants durring the year, then he gives me all the extra back at tax time (my savings account
).
Less than 5 years ago I was working for $1000 for the summer. Not much to live off of, but enough when you live with your parents rent free and have virtually no bills.

I wish I was making that money now. :(
