thats what my last girlfriend was. i didn't realize it until she left me for someone who probably makes more money than i do. which is funny because she comes from a family who makes $italy + $canada

im saving all this money and doing well for myself, but what's the purpose in having all this if you don't have anyone to share it with?

Shouldn't that be considered part of your wife's salary, and not yours?

The no taxes have nothing to do with my wife's job.

As for the accommodation, TV, and internet, yes, they are due to my wife's job, so if I wasn't married, or she didn't get those benefits, I would have to pay rent on a 2-3 room apartment (about $5K/yr) and pay for TV/internet.

OK, let's strike those off the list.

Just taking into account no taxes and $0.60 gas, $37K is equivalent to a $50K - $60K salary in the US.

I'd like to emphasize this. We should never forget that some of us are indeed lucky, whether due to family, that one big shot you got...and nailed, through friends, or through busting your ass when no one else would.

As a side note, I live in a city where people really HATE you if you make any kind of money... saying that all that make money are a bunch of stuck of assholes
when the truth of the matter is that us stuck up assholes actually went to college. us stuck up assholes actually support the community that you complain in. us stuck up assholes work pretty goddamn hard to live in the houses that we live in, drive the cars that we drive, etc... us stuck up assholes volunteer in the community...

8/24/2009 11:03:22 PM

This thread lets me realize I'm not doing so bad. I'm going to be ass broke probably in my next job though lol.

Are your cookies crispy or soft?

8/25/2009 8:56:43 AM

They are magic cookies and taste like the most amazing thing you've ever imagined. Sometimes soft, sometimes crispy, just depending on what you're craving at the moment.

They are, however, very expensive.

8/25/2009 9:00:48 AM

my last experience with magic cookies left me so incapacitated i lost my phone and felt around the couch for 30 minutes before finding it under my right thigh
