I agree but when you are winning (like most people here) we can afford to take a different view.

I earn more than most people in this thread and am saddened by how mean a lot of you are (or are pretending to be). Having the good fortune to live comfortably and without paycheck-to-paycheck fear should give you cause to be kinder and more compassionate towards your fellow human beings, rather than being lovely to interns and treating people who aren't earning big bucks to sit around posting and jerking off like they were somehow inferior as people. /insert ironic statement here distancing myself from the apparent sincerity of my post in order to seem like an ice-cool comedy forum poster

But seriously just loving and simultaneously at people thinking 65k+ is a lot also my wife is deathly afraid of the homeless despite her father at one point being a literally penniless refugee fleeing from genocide lol

I make around 68k and am broke all the time. My boss showed me his pay stub once for some reason; after taxes he barely makes more than I do. Probably need to make over a qtr million to get to the point where you can brag on income or live real comfortably.

I always thought it's funny that people will get to like... $105k and think they're a member of the six figure club. There's a fuckload of ground to cover to really get some loot. I won't feel like a high earner until I get like $150k+. loving $100k a year.... Wow I'm making six figures! *can't even afford a Corvette or 911* Kuato posted:I make around 68k and am broke all the time. My boss showed me his pay stub once for some reason; after taxes he barely makes more than I do. Yea until you're taking home $100k AFTER TAXES you can't really consider yourself a 6 figure club member. When you can casually stroke a check for an expensive car, or not blink at spontaneously buying plane tickets for a trip to Europe you've got some real money.
