validation consultant for pharmaceutical and biotech companies. nowhere near enough money.

There is a construction company in the US and in Hong Kong we have a real estate company along with a decent amount of condo's and apartments we own and rent out in Hong Kong.

HA! Validation for biotech... he could be my boss. :mrgreen:

You should be getting huge coin for that kinda work. Maybe you're just working for the wrong company?

that and i have expensive hobbies. i could be your boss if i knew what i was doing! lol.

Are you or your family from Hong Kong?

sounds nice

My mom lives in Yokosuka, JPN somewhere...

I work for an accounting firm in Southampton. I do the administrative work/IT Work/Whatever the CPA's don't want to do work. My salary really depends on how much OT I work during the tax season. So my base salary is around $35k, but it ranges from $35-42k. I am not an accountant either, the junior accountant who works with me (who does not have his CPA) makes double what I do. So, just imagine what getting your CPA does for you. *HINT* My boss charges $160/hour for his services.

I also have a second job back at Circuit City. I will be in the department I use to be in as a PC Tech/Sales making $9.50/hour.

*EDIT* Oh yea, I also forgot to add I am also in the Naval Reserves. I am an Intelligence Specialist with the paygrade of an E-4. So whatever that salary is...

...being house broke sucks! So, I am finally doing something about it.

HA HA... I used to work/intern at abercrombie. That job was so funny, I loved holding interviews. I had to ask questions like... what kind of car are you and whast your ideal spring break.... as if any of that has any bearing on how well you can fold a t-shirt.

That makes two of us. Lets start our own marketing firm.

Right now I am partially responsible for filling your mailbox with junk mail and making your newspaper slightly heavier. I design direct mail/insert campaigns for to Ford/Lincoln family of car companies.

yeah imagine lawyers.

the firm my gf works at charges $300/hour for her, but she makes a 10th of that.

Yea, what's craptacular is my boss said if I took a basic course in bookkeeping my salary would go up at least $5k and I would be going out to clients with them. He would pay for the class too...but I see it this way

Get to paid to sit online...
- or -
Get paid to sit at a client and crunch numbers...

Nope my parents are here with me but they go back often and they have trustworthy Managers over there.

Yeah man, the guy we deal with at my work makes 500 an hour just to look over simple sweeps rules and write outside letter of opinions. Seriously, I just signed off on a 2k bill for 4 hours and he did all of 45 mins worth of work. The letter is a standard letter that his assistant sends and the sweeps rules he just looks over to make sure the wording is correct. I need to be a lawyer.

Trust me
law school is no joke and very very stressful.


soon my gf starts school again, and so therefore Iwill have to walk inside our apartment with a helmet and chest protector on just in case any projectiles come my way

I work in a sales position, so technically the sky is the limit. Realistically this isn't the case though. Yearly, my earnings change (typically increase annually), but I don't feel comfortable posting what I make here. If you want to know on the side, I'd be more willing to share.

just curious, what kind of sales?

yeah, I know its no joke. My cousin went and told me all about it. The whole reason i havent gone yet is because if I hate it I'll still have to work in the field when i graduate so I could pay back my loans. I dont know if sitting in an office reading case law for hours on end is somethign i could deal with.

Medical software.

my gf does investment management, which involves all the fine print u see on public crap

still boring

I dont think that Allie was asking...



Accounts Receivable, salary with no overtime. My job sucks :(

Coming from the medical area, you sound like you feel guilty for how much you are paid.
