curious question about salaries...

Name where you live

In the area where you live, what would you consider the poverty line?

What would you consider a good living?

And if it's not too personnal, where abouts are you in that ballpark

2006 HHS Poverty Guidelines
Persons in
Family or Household 48 Contiguous
States and D.C. Alaska Hawaii
1 $ 9,800 $12,250 $11,270
2 13,200 16,500 15,180
3 16,600 20,750 19,090
4 20,000 25,000 23,000
5 23,400 29,250 26,910
6 26,800 33,500 30,820
7 30,200 37,750 34,730
8 33,600 42,000 38,640
For each additional
person, add 3,400 4,250 3,910

That's federal guideline and I believe it's pretty accurate here in Atlanta.

Good living is what you make of it.

As for my salary, it's what I make of it as I'm self-employed. Currently it's enough where I can pay my bills, provide for my family, and save.
