Doesn't go as far as you probably think it does, lol, at least if you have your priorities straight it doesn't.

My mortgage payment, otherwise deployed, could score me a couple of GTR's and an Evo 9, but I'd rather use that payment to secure half a mil worth of appreciating (hopefully) house than $200k worth of depreciating car.

I DJ, Don't make shit I take away 10-20% of the bar on average I bring home ~700+expenses every time I get a gig. I've been averaging 2 gigs a month the past three months but they have been in Phoenix, the Bay, and Miami during bigger events. Don't do house parties, not going to have my equipment wrecked by drunk people but I do do private afterparties promoted by promotion companies :P.

seriously. For those wishing for 100k a year... You should really set your sights higher than that LOL. By the time you figure in taxes, you're taking home 50-60 a year, and around 35-45 of that goes to your basic expenses when living on your own/supporting small family... Not as much left over as you would expect.

adam bergener · 10-30-2008, 05:22 PM

*JVDSKYRINE* · 11-23-2008, 01:22 PM

I make anywhere from 2000 to 3000 clear a week working on the Pipeline as a welders helper gonna apprentice to be a welder. But I also don't work all year long and am usually working out of town so i get a living allowance to cover hotel/food costs. Its crazy though i can get taxed up to 1500 a week. Its good money but kind of a shitty life and long hours and depressing little towns.

All in all I do okay if there is work for me. But if not I am screwed lol. After my first year of school I should be able to make 25 an hour in fab shops which is about 5 dollars less an hour than i am making now out of town

*inertiaticism* · 11-24-2008, 06:53 PM

C. I'm a woodworker at my family's cabinet shop, I build cabinets, do finishwork, fix everything, and basically do anything that needs doing.
Hopefully I'll get promoted into the office at some point, which would be like, G area.
Used to do FT IT work, it paid a lot more, but I wanted to drive my car off a bridge every morning, so I entered into a neverending chain of shitty jobs that I'm at least enjoying myself at.
Getting tired of it, going back to school to start stacking real money again.

Do highschools even keep records that long?! I’m not sure I’d want to work for a company that digs that far back. No trust what so ever. Then again, my HR manager called my doctor 10 times in a row (while I was at the appointment) to if I was truly there, how long my appointment would take, and if whatever I’m there for would affect my job duties. My doctor explained to him, giving any information other than “yes he had an appointment today” violates HIPAA, thus he could give no further information. Then my HR manager started having the receptionist call in. LOL.
