I agree they should be paid more, but c'mon. I live in the Northeast and it's 1100 per month just for rent. Compare that to 200-300 per month out west. I seem to be able to get by on 20,000/year so I don't know what they're complaining about.

Where is this out west you speak of?

Colorado.

I also just checked out SF Bay area and the rent for most places is cheaper than here.

I dont think you get it. This is a career. People need homes, families, cars, retirement plans. This is not some job you take and dumb, this is a life time position. You need at least 50k to start your life.

What? No you don't. You don't need a house to start your life. You get a job and save money. Then you do stuff like buy a house, which, in the long run is actually cheaper than renting. Plus, I get by on 20k AND I'm paying off loans and live in a condo.

You get paid more later. When you start, you can't just make 50k per year all the time. Even 28k is more than I've ever made and I have a good savings and have been paying off everything and I get dunkins like everyday, go to baseball games, movies and, of course, gaming is expensive too yaknow.

I'm sorry but anyone complaining to me about finances who makes more than me should try a day in my shoes.
