Mb - check brackets for top 40%, I think there’s a typo

Good catch. I enabled re-voting as well.

Thread title is funny. How much I earn and how much I got are vastly different sums.

I'll be happy to change the thread title for a small fee.

Damn. Bunch of rich fuckers up in here. I'm the lowest so far at $71k. If I were still married to my ex, household income would be around $120k - $125k.

[uscbucsfan]

I'm surprised no one thus far is actually "rich".

I'm quite certain when some people look at our results they would call us all rich and greedy and having much more than we need.

Look on the bright side. You're in the top 20% on an individual basis.

No one here is saying that.

But being 95, don't you qualify for Super Senior Social Security?

I didn't mean anyone here would, but the larger population in general. As I said in the other thread...those who post in the Political Forum are not wholly representative of the general population -- either in politics or economics or the cross-section of them.

The poll is bearing that out assuming we are all telling the truth.

What's that worth? A extra buck ninety?

One of my students in class today asked on average how much money do people who retire have saved up?

I honestly didn't know how to answer....I have never investigated that question. So my simple smart ass remark was "not enough". I need to look that up before Monday when I see them again.

Not with MY tax dollars!

Oh, I'm not complaining. I'm quite happy where I'm at. I have all the **** I need and plenty of **** I don't need.

In my case, you would be correct with that answer.

Here's what I quickly found....I'm guessing it has bounced back up as the market has increased after the recession bottom it out.






NO matter how much money I have saved up at retirement...my answer for myself would be "not enough" as well!

HA! I know it's a joke but I will save this quote for future discussions!

[Selmon Rules]

Our household income could be up one level from what I picked... The Mrs does well in real estate, good thing cause my teaching salary sure couldn't pay the bills, lol

[PrimeMinister]

Damn this board is full of rich ***holes.

I kid I kid. Pretty interesting how well off most of you are. This board is not representative of America at all.

[uscbucsfan]

I guess this is for another discussion, but does anyone consider 430k+ per year to be "rich"? Even when I was poor growing up 1 million was always the "rich" threshold. 430k is really well off and living a comfortable life (maybe depending on debt and financial decisions), but I don't think it's rich.

[uscbucsfan]

I'd also be interested to see the collective debt. I'm sure it's pretty high as well.

Net worth is where it's at more than income.

Whomever voted in the 5% margin, I would expect to have a net worth approaching $1M. If not now, then within a couple of years.

I understand the difference, but I think of liquid over 1 million to be "rich", depending on the size of your house, age, lifestyle...430 isn't rich to me. You have a faster track to it, but you aren't there. That's just my opinion.
