if u ain't makin $200K+ on the Coli....then u shouldn't be on the Coli....:mjgrin:

I'm making around 150K, (On my Grandma's Life), and I'm still on The Coli. I'm sitting in my office listening to ESPN Radio while I post this.

:blessed:

Also, it's enough in theory. I'm just A Single nikka in LA.

I want way more though. Family and I are launching a business enterprise early 2020.

70k. 24 yrs. Happy that I’m gainfully employed.

It’s a start. My overhead is very low so I have more cushion month to month. No debt as well. But next position def looking for 15-20k more.

End of the day it’s what you keep and reinvest.

I do need to cut out some frivolous spending though (going out, eating out, social functions etc).

EDIT: In the DC area for context.

Damn... Why not just get transferred down south? Even if you took a 10k pay cut, you would live good down here.

No transferrable skills. Work for NY Court system. That shyt holds weight nowhere but here. :sadcam:

Between 70 and 100k

31 no kids.

it’s not enough because I’m trying to get into real estate (rentals) and it take money to make money :yeshrug;

Once I pay off my car and get this property rented out I should be on my way. I am due a couple big raises in the next few years as well.

:lupe:

Lol every state has a court system. Yes, laws are specific to each state, but your overall experience in a court system is valuable.

I am right at six figures, I am content and grateful that I am able to make this much and constantly spend time learning new things so I can stay in that range. I don't trust corporate America so if my company were to let me go, I want to make sure my skills and education can lead another high payng gig

My dream situation would be working 130K for 40 hours a week and a part time 20hr contractor job paying me 50K or so. Live off the 50K while pocketing the 130K towards retirement...
