    Looks like at least one so far. Is this entertaining you yet?

    I find it entertaining that you thought I was serious...it's really 41.67 an hour.

    My income is inversely proportional to how much time I spend on MFP.



    Crap, I have been on here a lot lately......

    As a geologist: >$40/hr
    As a magician >$250/hr
    but I get 1 to 2 hrs a month on average as a magician.

    I make more money than God!

    I also figured out that 9 years of education is not worth it compared to what I do make. And because I didn't read your post. that's about $8.00/hr after student loans.

    I get paid too much to quit, but not enough to not play the lottery.
  • Wait, you mean you guys get paid to work?

    while I'm at work? or while I'm actually working? It's the same amount either way... but I do more sitting here than I do work. So I guess technically I get paid more to be at work, than I do to actually work.

    Did that answer your question?

    ^^ This. Lol.

    Because I am frugal, I make enough to pay my bills and take care of my child, but not much more than that.
    I make more than someone with no college education or trade/skill training should.

    So, hell, I'll answer, because if you all know how little I make, no one will be tempted to break in to my house and steal anything, because I really don't own anything valuable enough to steal. $17.50/hour

    ETA - that is really a real answer, too.

    I was just curious so I looked up the median household income in your city. $37K/year. In my area it is about $100K/year. Goes to show how income is very much relative to the area you live. If I made what you made, your salary would probably not even cover the mortgage for my 2-BR condo ignoring all other expenses but taxes.

    I WOULD make a pretty decent living, but my pimp increased his cut to 60%. I mean, RIDICULOUS. I'm exhausted.

    I'd be rich if I get paid for how many times I have to yell "stop", "Don't do that", "You are going to get hurt" or "Leave him/her alone!" during a day. I love my kids though... :wink:

    which job? I have two

    $40+ an hour?!?! Boy, I'm in the wrong field.

    I'm a glorified social worker... about $17 an hour... plus side is that my retirement and benefits are worth a ton.

    Very true. Also, I live in the ghetto. My mortgage on my 3bed/2bath house is cheaper than rent on most 2bed/1bath apartments in other parts of the city.

  • in Trident "layers" gum...
  • I totally clicked because I couldn't believe you were asking that question.

    Not just ANY gum, right???

    I wish I got paid in gum (sad face)

    I used to make this much (000,000's) then the recession hit and since I was in real estate I went to making this much (0) and being worth this much (o). Now I make (00,000) but getting closer to the 000,000's again!!

    Less than average UK wage. Not enough to get a mortgage with even on a 2 bed house. Not enough to afford a new car or a holiday every other year.

    Enough that i show up regularly and don't look for another job. Not enough for me to retire at 40.
