A majority of Americans make less than $20 per hour

[jilla82]

So what!?

Most people I know arent even trying to come up.
So im supposed to feel bad because they dont make $20/hr.

I was having a couple of drinks w/ some cats I used to work with.
One of them asked me how much I make...I told them $70K (this was my first year w/o a job)...they damn near fell out their chairs on some "I found the holly ghost" shyt.

Thing is...when you make more money...you realize you gotta make even more money.
Its all about increasing your knowledge base.
If you dont know shyt...how do you expect to make more money?

I noticed that most of the people that say "such and such amount is not a lot of money" don't even make any where near that amount that's supposedly "nothing".

I dont listen to half these cornballs about anything money or career related. There's like 5,000 posters (or more) on the Coli but everyone's a baller Same dudes talking about they make six figures in one thread be in the next thread saying they won't tip the waiter five dollars. I love when nikkas expose themselves I never care enough to call them out though. I just make a mental note to never listen to them again

32, and trust me when I say, the more money you make, the more you realize how little you make...

Realizing $200K/yr is STILL not Ferrari money

the majority of Americans make enough money that you could dump them in a mass grave and no one would miss them. what is your point?

I see why its difficult to have & keep a family on one income.
I see we're also one car accident or injury away from financial ruin.

shyt ain’t wavy breh

 

[Yapdatfool]

if we're serious we need to focus on allowing the market to become an employees market.

What qualifies as an employees market?
Plentiful high paying jobs? Or a free market for employers to pay what they want?

Why have you summoned me?

 

[Serious]

Why have you summoned me?

Because you're 6'6 making 6 figs, with 6 certs, smashing 6 pawgs in rotation at 19

But gonna have my student loans paid off and collections debts cleared from my credit report by spring time

so force companies to pay more than people are worth?
What's the incentive to be a hard worker than? Shouldn't an intelligent society promote hard work and a good education?
Isn't that the instinctive nature of parenthood? The instinctive nature of parenthood can't be wrong can it?

I cant stand you type of nikkas no pay people a living wage the minimum wage has not increased with inflation.

it's slippery slope, I'll contend that the minimum wage issue isn't as easy cut and dry as it seems.....

But I do I agree that CEO's shouldn't be multimillions a year while the bulk of their employees are only making $8 an hour.....

Yeah I realize that but we got to stop listening to these politicians with million and billionaires in there pocket and start using some common sense on these issues republicans were acting like the sky was going to fall down if obamacare passed.
