Im working seasonal jobs and make about $6,000 a year right now while im in college. Hoping to make around 50K out of college so i can affort rent, bills and have extra cash to do whatever i want with.

Just posting out of curiosity.

I get about $591.00 a month :homestar: .

Around $16k working two jobs.

Not enough to afford all the useless tat I want to buy.

I don't have a job because I have to go to this legal torture they call "school" (seriously, waking up at 5:30 just to get there on time, having to deal with the ignorant jerks that form most of the population, and then it doesn't even end when you leave because they invented a little thing called homework) and I need all the free time I can get to maintain my sanity.

I transport white goods from Columbia to the rest of the world, making around $50,000 per deal.

Yep, that's a lot of freezers and cookers.

idk at the moment, i just got promoted so i don't know if that means i will get more money and if yes idk how much. previously i made too little to live off of on my own even though i work full time. good thing i am a lazy bum who does not have to pay a single cent in bills. i just save pretty 80% of my money.

If I continued to work the hours at my old job, I could make a little more than 10k a year.

» Sun Nov 27, 2011 5:30 pm

I work approximately two and half days a week (total, assuming 8 hours = a day) and get 650-780€ a month. Not much, but the work is a cakewalk and I need to study the same time. Been working here only 4 months and the pay varies depending on amount of work, so can't count yearly wages. Once a year I would get a ~400€ bonus, every June. Not likely I work longer than one year though. University awaits.

I am an esteemed, horny, 18 year old billionaire.

None. No findy worky.

School though. Very, very soon.

Combining the various odd jobs and tasks I've done over this past year, and converting it to dollars, it amounts to around 12k.

I make $0 since the world decided to screw me over. Blamed myself however i'm done and over that deciding the world is at fault now. Brought up to believe the equation Education = Job with that being a lie since now people want an Education + 3 years of on the job experience even for entry level positions. Can't even get a job as a stupid groundskeeper without people wanting experience in grass cutting, soil management, and botany experience. It's definitely annoying as hell and right now I would be homeless if it weren't for my parent taking me in.

Fluctuates in the 60-70k range.
Combination of VA disability (military service) and my fishing guide service.

Amongst my siblings I'm not considered rich in finances, but my life experiences are priceless. :blush:

I make 0$, not having a job gives me so much free time!

» Sun Nov 27, 2011 11:22 pm

Like $1,700ish a month as an E3, but when you include all of the benefits (full health, dental, free food, free room, free utilities, free training / education, etc.) it's pretty nice.

$200 a month. Doing my chores.
I'm really lazy to get job, I'd rather be over my friends place. :homestar:

Okej here, a word of advice.
Never ask someone how much they earn.

I think that it's something that people can be a bit too uptight about; then again, it's bad form to brag about how much one earns, so it is a subject that's perhaps best avoided.

Ugh, I still cringe at the memory of a friend showing complete strangers his bank balance, though that was 20 odd years back at the height of yuppiedom.

I've no idea, since it really just depends on how many hours I get.

» Sun Nov 27, 2011 1:39 pm

30k

» Sun Nov 27, 2011 11:35 am

After the government guts ~$100 from me every week, I make ~$410 a week. So, that's ~21,000 a year.

» Sun Nov 27, 2011 9:02 pm

Right now I'm making about ~4,500.00$ a year... When I graduate I'll hopefully be making 50,000.00+ a year.

Do you have experience in your field outside of school, and contacts in the working world?

I have a little bit of experience but it's looking likely I'm going to get an internship in the field I'm working in this summer. I also have a family friend in the field that could hopefully put in a good word for me once I graduate.
