When people ask how much your income is..

...intended dramatic pause ...

Dan, I make exactly ...

Can I come crash at your place for free for a few years? That'll definitely raise my salary multiple folds

Haha, is living for free worth it if it's in bama?

Almost the same reaction my (California-raised) wife had. Hence the "/Reston, va" in my location

I actually started a thread a few months back.

How much does the average Z owner make a year?

Red__Zed · 08-22-2011, 10:55 AM

Mind = blown at the salary numbers there.

b1adesofcha0s · 08-22-2011, 10:59 AM

I love how everyone believed Will's post in there

It had to be quite a change for your wife Dan. This is going to be B1ades a few years at a BBQ:
Unknown# Hey B1ades, nice lambo for a 23 years old who just got out of college. How much do you make?
B1ades - surrounded by numerous groupies# Too much
Unknown# Come on man, how much?
B1ades - snapping his fingers at one of the groupie, she pulls $100 bill from his guccy jeans and wipes his face, then tosses the money# Oil money, young molah on the uprise

If a coworker asks you, that's completely inappropriate. It only breeds discontent. People negotiate their salaries 1-on-1. If you find out that Joey McSlackazz is making 5k more a year, you'll get mad, even if it was your fault for not negotiating better when you took the job.

It was an akward moment when I was put on the spot. After thinking about it, I shouldve just answered "just enough to get by" or "dont worry about it" and leave it at that. Since I know that most of my friends who came to my BBQ don't make as much as I do, I threw out a false number that is close to what they make. I'm sure anyone there that was intelligent enough would know that I was lying and that it was rude to ask such questions. I'm not inviting that person over to any of my BBQ events anymore.

That was sooo funny. I think that might have been when he first went prem though.

I'm only working at an internship now so I still get paid hourly. Don't really think that matters too much compared to an actual salary. I wouldn't mind telling close friends and family exactly how much I make, but outside of that no one needs to know. Although I have been tempted to ask my supervisor how much he makes. Mostly just to get an idea of how much I would get if I got a full time job working here after I graduate.

I don't even know off the top of my head exactly how much I make. I'd have to look it up.
