I am a satellite survivability engineer for Lockheed Martin Commercial Space Systems…I guess I'm a rocket scientist? I get paid pretty well although I have to save most of it so that I can afford to go to graduate school :roll:

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.

Somehow Sandy and "intelligence" don't seem fitting for each other. haha.

I don't feel guilty about it, I earned every last penny of it through long hours and hard work. I just make more money than the average bear and would prefer not to disclose it publicly :)

I work for a fairly large (for this industry), very technologically advanced cabinetmaking shop. I do much of the, benefits, payroll, IT work and even get to travel around the country to fix any mistakes that people here may have made. Perks of the job are being sent to places like Las Vegas for 3 days, Beverly Hills for 4 days, and Fort Lauderdale for 3 days. Not to mention the capability to make insane subwoofer enclosures (provided I can get some machine time).

I make enough money to pay for all my toys and still have some money to spare.

I think the average household in America sees about $44,000 a year before taxes. I couldn't find any concrete data on individual citizen avg. income.

Since I worked for WebMD for a little over 3 years... I know your well off. Medical Software Sales is a big market. Want to pay some of my bills?

My wife and I are surviving with my pool service business. We are having a really good second season in business, but our expenses are crazy. Insurance is insane for anything involving chemicals.

I'm aiming for $175-200k in total service sales by mid-November. After expenses and insane taxes, we might actually have some extra cash saved.
Next year should be a lot better with a little more advertising.:banana:
