Was recently offered a massive paycut so I quit my job. Finding it hard to find anything paying anything close to what I was making before. To clarify was making 78K after a 15 year career, got offered to do the same thing at 35K per year and told them to piss off. Some new woman got placed in charge over me, threw a hissyfit that I made more than her, and brought all this about. Having a hard time finding something paying close to what I was making before so just wondering what the average FAN gets paid.

Not to humble brag or anything but I have more money than Vince McMahon and once made a offer to buy the WWE and he said yes but I changed my mind after seeing how Kane was getting his push he finally deserved

I'm at a little 40k...but with the amount of hours I work it doesn't seem justified.
Example: last 9 days I've worked a combined total of 100 hours. That includes Saturday.

Keep in mind these numbers don't mean a whole lot with money going much farther in smalltown USA than say ... San Fransisco.
I make less than half what I did in St Louis doing similar work, but holy shit my money goes three times as far now.

Barely enough to get by. That's why I'm living with my mother right now.

44K I think. Actual take home is 1300 and change every other week. My wife is also at about that same amount.
We live very comfortably, but it is high time for me to put this law degree towards making some real money. Unfortunately I have an underwhelming academic career and zero networking skills.

I make less than half what I did in St Louis doing similar work, but holy shit my money goes three times as far now. That's the boat I'm in. By L.A. standards I was barely getting by. Taking a big paycut here just isn't going to pay the bills. I've never been unemployed since getting my career started after college so scary feeling and a lot of uncertainty about my life right now. |

Alternate Thread Title: Brag About How Much Money You Make Well I'm currently making none, am in a lot of debt, and can barely function the past week in fear I'll end up living on the street, so I'm none to brag. |

Like I read that 90K a year in San Antonio gives you the same money lifestyle as 150K here. Like I remember seeing the houses that Kane and Rusev have in Rural Tennessee and those houses would be like five times more here. Honestly the better question for this poll is how comfortable is your living situation |

At the moment, barely anything.
After all the medical stuff last year I couldn't find a job. It took about 4-5 months after in order to actually get on Disability. I get a grand total of 600 bucks to last me a month.
Working on figuring out how much I can work and stay on Social Security with Medicaid. If I can get a job that makes enough, I don't care about the SS, but the Medicaid would be the ONLY way I could pay for my medication without having to get 4 jobs JUST to buy that.
Also it all depends on how I adjust to walking with the fake leg when I get it (hopefully by next week)

I make less than half what I did in St Louis doing similar work, but holy shit my money goes three times as far now. Yep. What I made while living right outside Houston was much better money. But the cost of living out there was 3 times higher. Now I make less but have more money cause living in backwoods MS is extremely cheap. |

Because of s job change and the loss of a secondary income, my take home pay has dropped by almost 50% since 2012. I'm still making about 55K a year, but for a family of five living in LosAngeles that puts us below the poverty level.

I only have a weekend job due to being a full-time college student, so not nearly enough.

Right around 30k or so. I work in commissions, so my hourly is garbage, but I'm one hell of a salesman.

no idea, and I cant be arsed converting it into dollars for a throw away thread. I was simply asking. After 15 years they treated me like an overpaid piece of trash. I can't survive on what I was offered so walked away. I'm at a rock bottom place in life and have been unable to sleep since I became jobless last week. The job search has been bleak. Sorry for this throway thread thought we were encouraged to talk about our real life problems on here. |
