About to turn 23. Marketing Manager bringing in about $50+ K w/ Bonuses. No Debt (just rent). No car payment (paid cash). Saving every penny (while still enjoying life) because I think our economy is headed down hill big time during my lifetime.

Being a CPA is nice and all. But I'd much rather be the guy that hires a CPA and can afford to pay him $100k.

Speaking of which, what do you do, Celtic? If you don't mind sharing.

I don't look forward to paying $6,000 in taxes on a $250k condo, but I don't have a choice.
You should have moved to PA, its better than Dirty Jersey j/k

Where is Jersey do you work? I'm like 10 mins from Trenton....i think i asked this before...lol




And i'm awaiting a 3%-5% raise.....whoppy frigging do!!!

Also bought a house in Silcon Valley recently... this damn place is expensive as well, and 150k + salaries of most techies here make the average 3 bedroom piece of crap house going for $750,000 look easy! At least I have summers off!!!

I am in the wrong industry. 65k for 9 months of work isn't half bad. I do taxes and I worked 300 hours of overtime last year. Sadly we don't get paid for overtime. I made considerably less than 65k.

I am in sales with some marketing/e-comm responsibilities for a guitar string/ music accessory company. It's nice to be in an industry i have a passion for (i'm a guitarist/trumpeter). I make 45-50K depending on sales as part of my salary is commission based. I think that's decent money considering I live at home I can pretty easily afford the $320 lease (financing it would have been a bit tougher but doable). I like my TSX a lot and there's a good chance I'll buy the car at lease end, even if it's a bit more than the book I take care of my cars really well as I know you all do. Considering a loaded altima would have cost me more than a TSX w/ Navi., i think the TSX is a great value, IMHO that Altima is not even in the same league of build quality and refinement.

Electrical Test Engineer. I'm in the last category, but when I bought the TSX, I was the one lower than that. I can pay for my car and house and everything else with my salary, and think I've done pretty well for myself. My fiance's active duty salary is a nice bonus though.
