what you read is bs.....proof below
nice house oakley/brentwood=200k=1450 a month
utils 300
car 400
gas/food 700
3000 a month 36k per year with abouth 20gs left over after taxes for what ever, i dont know anyone on poverty with a 5bed house and new whips lol its all how you budget/and how much debt you have
No car insurance, mobile phone, cable tv or sat.,?
$700 on food AND gas? If you eat roman and drive a moped.
Property tax?
$300 on utilites? Like water, gas, electric, garbage? I don't know about $300!
If you are single on 36k then maybe
i dont know where you live but that 1450 includes property tax at 200k,,,,, i feed 4 people on 600 a month and we eat out/good food...our utils are actually a tad cheaper net comcast ect...
cell phones 80 more a month ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
I wouldn't call 65k straight poverty BUT it's now an assload of money and goddamn! Feeding 4 on $600 a month is that just on food? Or is $600 what u bring in on a regular month cuz if so I'll pay you to show me the light cuz I make more then that and find myself broke quite often. [/QU
take in 600 a month? lmfao, i spend 600 a month on food feeding 4 people, eating out,steak the works lol idk why its hard to believe trader joes is where we shop

I agree. Yes, WHO you know sometimes comes in handier than WHAT you know...BUT, if you're like a lot of other people searching for a job without an internal hookup, you definitely have a better chance with a college degree than without one

Its hard to imagine it on that budget but I started thinkin. I do a bunch of extra stuff that most probably dont do. I put into 401k and 403b, I put tons aways for each of my kids education (4 of the 5 are already paid for ). Plus I have teenagers. You might be feeding 2 adults and 2 little kids.
But as stated get an education. I also read somewhere that college educated (read degree obtained) folks will see on average up to a million more dollars in their lifetime.

But it is a very good career and a very future promising one. With all the dependancy on webapps, mobile device apps and the fusion of TV and Web I stay busy with new things to learn and apply. And truth be told you really do not need a degree to get in the door. You just need demonstrated know-how.
I'm also a programmer by day and poker player by night. Talking about salary, as someone commented on earlier, is a little bit of a taboo.
However, the average salary of most Developers/DBAs/Business Intel Engineers/Data Analysts.. etc. are definitely in this range or higher.
And yes, in the data/software fields, it is possible to get into the door without a B.S... However, it's a little harder than those with B.S. and M.S. degrees.
Edit: BTW, I get taxed out the a$$ on my daytime salary. I need to find some dependents or something. LOL

Construction Management is where it is at. I make well over 60K a year. Construction management is going to turnover (retirement of owners and experienced PM's PE's) in the next 3 years. Now is the time to get in. As many people have said, its not what you know but who you know.

in order to make $3000/month take home, you need a salary north of $5000/month, or about $60k, taxes and health insurance are a bitch...

I get taxed out the ass, I have zero dependents and make pretty good money, my health is setup weird, it's taken out of my check but placed into a health savings account for me which I can only use to pay for health related things like co-pays and prescriptions. I'd rather have the $350/month...

Ain't got no job, but I stay suave (Ehh-Ehh Ehh-Ehh, I stay suave)
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent (I can't pay my rent)
But that's okay, cause I'm Still Fly (Uh, Uh, Damn! Cause I'm so fly)
Got a quarter tank of gas - in my new E class (In my E-Class Benz)
But that's alright, cause I'm gon' ride (mmm-hmm)
Got everythang - in my momma name (We got everythang, in my momma name)
But I'm Hood Rich - dadah-dadah da-dah da-dah da-dah (Uh-Huh!)
[Baby]
Get your k-uh, k-uh-car, play gems gone shine
And tell momma get a mink - baby girl let's ride (let's ride)
You a number one stunna, and we gon' glide
And go straight to the mall and tear down the inside
Do that Prada, Gucci, full length leather
Bourbon's cool or Coogi sweater (sweater)
Twenty-inches pop my feather
The Birdman daddy I fly in any weather
Alligator seats with the head in the inside
Swine on the dash, G-wagon is So Fly
Number one don't tangle and twist it
When it come to these cars I am that nigga
The k-uh, k-uh-Coogi with the matchin interior
Three wheel ride with the tire in the middle
It's Fresh and Stunna, and we like brothers
We shine like paint daddy; it's our summer
[Chorus: Mannie Fresh]
Gator boots with the pimped out Gucci suits
Ain't got no job, but I stay sharp
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent
But that's okay, cause I'm Still Fly

Have you ever seen a crocodile seats in the truck
Turn around sit it down and let 'em bite your butt
See the steering wheel is Fendi, dashboard Armani
With your baby momma - player, is where you can find me?
Cruisin through the parking lot on twenty fours
(Coming Through The Hood On 'Em Twenty Fo's)
Cadillac Escalade with the chromed out nose
With an navigation arrow headed straight to your spot
Where your wife really love me cause the sex is so hot
Put the Caddy up, start the three wheel Benz (Skiiiiiirt!)
Hyper white lights, ultra-violet lens
Suma-tuma tires and they gotta be run flat
TV where the horn go (uh-uhhh), "Boy can you top that?"
I'ma show you some shit - rookie press that button
The trunk went (Ehh-Ehh) and all of a sudden
Four fifteen's - didn't see no wires
And then I heard (Boom!) from the amplifiers
[Chorus: Mannie Fresh]
Gator boots with the pimped out Gucci suits
Ain't got no job, but I stay sharp
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent
But that's okay, cause I'm Still Fly

Lemme slide in the Benz (Shit!) with the fished out fins
Impala loud pipes -- Drinkin the Henn'
It's the Birdie-Birdie Man - I'll do it again
In a Cadillac truck 24's with 10's
[Mannie Fresh]
Looking at my Gucci - it's about that time
Six bad broads flying in at nine
New Suburban Truck with the porno showing
Up and down {*orgasm*} and up they go and..
[Baby]

And the rims keeps spinning everytime I stop
Got a superman Benz that I scored from Shaq
With a ol' school Caddy with a "diamond in the back"
[Chorus: Mannie Fresh]
Gator boots with the pimped out Gucci suits
Ain't got no job, but I stay sharp
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent

Scumbag banker here for over 7 years. It takes time to put yourself in the position to make a good buck. You just have to know what your good at before you can make dough and enjoy it. Whatever field you plan on getting in on, your going to have to put in countless hours becoming successful. Its not an overnight thing, they say you have to put in over 10,000 hours to master a particular field to be truly great at what you do. Regardless of your talent, its the work you put in to be a true professional in any field you choose.
