That would be me.. just kidding.. I wish I was making that much but I appreciate what I make now. Although, without my FH I would not be able to afford our Condo alone..

we have great jobs because we went to college, FH to grad school, and im currently in grad school.

therefore the student loans piled up too. so we show a nice income, but $400 a month combined go to Sallie Mae. (i hate that B!tch.)

Re: Anonymous: What is YOUR average salary?

I hate Sallie Mae too!

I alone owe 40,000!

After utilities, Student loans and car insurance.. I cant imagine a mortgage too!

Re: Anonymous: What is YOUR average salary?

i work in CT
my job is 12 hours a day and i am on call 24/7
i consider myself appropriately compensated for th stress and anxiety i have from my job...

and to be honest what i make is not nearly enough to cover my mortgage and expenses...if dh was not contributing i would not be able to afford the 'starter' house that we own..

its pretty sad the cost of things these days

me too - LI stinks sometimes. I am currently attempting to convince FH that we should move to VI or NC - he said yes in a few years (I want to go now!)

Re: Anonymous: What is YOUR average salary?

I LOVE my job and the company I work for. FH and I both live at home and have been saving like CRAZY- i can't tell you the last time we did anying over $50!! (mini golf night was our big nite out last week) but to be able to buy a house near our family is important to us.
