Shadows Posted February 3, 2017 Report Posted February 3, 2017 Cause if youre a real adult 40k is entry level. 50k is good. 60k + is like "i have my shit together and will be just fine for retirement" Quote
Kyle Posted February 3, 2017 Report Posted February 3, 2017 that was the number phillycore used. we could drop the number significantly and theprogram4, VTmark, and Shadows would still be in the club. not sure about kyle and phillycore. Depending on how much significant is, I would still be in it 1 Quote
RootDKJ Posted February 4, 2017 Report Posted February 4, 2017 Become a cable guy, lol. Starts a bit on the low side but you can build it pretty quick. I never thought I could make what I make now.Yeah, this for sure. Or just invest in cable stocks. Quote
enjoralas Posted February 4, 2017 Report Posted February 4, 2017 Yeah, this for sure. Or just invest in cable stocks. That too. I have done very well on the employee purchase plan. CMCSA about to split. I predict a nice run after the split. Quote

enjoralas Posted February 4, 2017 Report Posted February 4, 2017 Everything changed in 2008 when cmcsa started paying out dividends That's right around when I started contributing, couple years into my career. Maybe 2009. Quote
phillycore Posted February 5, 2017 Report Posted February 5, 2017 It wasn't me who came up with the 60k number.....someday I'll get there....I hope. That said, I would still be a member if you dropped it down a bunch as well...... Someone said to me at one point, that if you are making your age you're doing ok. Not sure if I agree with that statement but I'll feel much better about it if I do so I'm going with it..... 20 years old ---20k 40 years old ---40k Etc.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

Kyle Posted February 5, 2017 Report Posted February 5, 2017 A long time ago I realized that I am just trying to survive not trying to compete that's for sure... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'm starting to feel the same way. I have a few friends making very very good money, but I'm happy with what I make. I make enough to live and have a little fun every now and then so that's what's important. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 2 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Posted February 5, 2017 The question is do you live to work or work to live. Most people work to live and nothing wrong with going to work regularly to pay for your bills and the things you enjoy to do. 1 Quote
poconoceancity Posted February 5, 2017 Report Posted February 5, 2017 I heard 5 times your age recently. Probably was your age about 50 years ago. Having a balance of time off and enough money to do fun stuff is key. I feel like most people on here have that balance. 1 Quote
toast21602 Posted February 5, 2017 Report Posted February 5, 2017 5x your age? There are probably very, very few here who are at that point Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Posted February 5, 2017 Wow just wow pocono Quote
poconoceancity Posted February 5, 2017 Report Posted February 5, 2017 Think about it. If a kid graduates college and lands a great job making 100k a year, then gets a 5k raise every year... Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Posted February 5, 2017 Are there any fields with a starting salary of $100,000 a year with a bachelors degree?? Quote
Kyle Posted February 5, 2017 Report Posted February 5, 2017 Are there any fields with a starting salary of $100,000 a year with a bachelors degree??If you're a female, Porn industry. Although degree not required. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk I actually read recently that most chicks only make like $600 per scene. Do the math.... Most are "dancers" on the side. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote
