And student loans!

I make about $360/year. rly :)

Is that including the deposits on the cans or are you trying to hide income from us?:p:

Should I be including what I get for my university scholarship? It's not really 'earnings' but it is incoming cash...

Fuck it. I'll include the scholarship payments.

do you earn what you get paid?

Wrong! If I tell you, how do I know you won't try to hack into my bank account?

I do!

My only real income is as the school swim team coach. This is my second year. The fee is set by the district. My co-coach and I would do it for nothing, but the money is a set rate (aimed at highschooler/college swimmer extra income level) and with employeeship comes insurance etc., so it's better all round if we are officially employed for real money. it's all ends up back at the school anyway, plus we also to the work of team parent, chief recruiter etc. :lol:

She was commenting on how much the majority of us cares about what you think or earn.

Holy crap , the mean income for the representative sample of dwellers is in the upper bracket of the American tax code. That is a lot of money.

Trust me, some of us are doing our bit to keep that figure from getting too high...

Like me for one, I make next to nothing

I had to add my scholarship funding to my wages to make it out of that first bracket.

Even if I add everything I'm still below the poverty line

You can't average these numbers like that, because people could vote multiple times. I voted for both my income, and my "income with spouse."

I have enough to be 'elegant' - where's the 'elegant' choice up there?
