| spurgeonryan said: So what would you consider it? Middle class? I would say it is right on the border. Any lower and some would have troubles with bills. But some have no bills so maybe to them poor is 1500 or less. How bout just say if you think you are poor or not. Better? |
On a world prespective, anybody who lives in the US is rich.
Rich people in a lot of other countries would kill to be poor here.
That said I make about.... 1,180 a month?
Girlfriend makes about 900.
Pay about ~$800 a week on rent + Utilities.
No huge debts. Girlfriend has student loans but those should be mostly paid off before she graduates and they take effect.
Don't receive any other income (no government benefits or the like)
Live in Nevada.
As for the questionire
What could make things better in your life?
Moving out of Nevada. Should happen once my GF fininishes college.
Are you happy?
Yep.
What could you have done differently?
I could of went to gradschool instead of my girlfriend, would of already graduated since all I would of needed is a masters, and I already had an in with a compnay. Would likely be making six figures at this point.
Why?
I'm guessing your asking why I didn't do that? Simple, If I had my girlfriend would of been unhappy. While I don't care about what I do for a living. I'm happier her getting a chance to live her dream and working wherever, then I would be making a bunch of money while she was stuck with a second rate version of the job she wanted.
I mean, honestly, outside owning a condo, or some other small house I can't see where i'd spend any extra money anyway.
