I'm 21, and in school. I generally only work in the summer, and last summer I made $8/hour, but I think I'm going back there next summer and I'll either be making $10 or $12/hour. But it's pretty much just spending money. I'm lucky.

When I graduate in two and a half years and (hopefully) get a job, I'll be making 30-40k a year as an elementary school teacher.

Ya know, it's not that I don't like what I make, I just don't like the rate of increase - I've been there 6 years and I've only gone up 9k... and that's including a promotion. Contrast that to my wife who's gone up $20k in the same amount of time with no promotion. Downside of big companies. If I were in the financial sector, I'd be much better off but I can't leave this job security / benefits. Such a crap situation (relatively speaking).

well since i'm in school, and work at school, and wages are governed by the state where i work, $7.60... which comes out to $7 even after tax. I get my books for free though, and adjusting for time value and stuff (i can get to work 2 minutes after my classes dismiss or get to class 2 minutes after work ends), and the easiness of the job, and I figure I have it better than most college students working elsewhere who make in excess of 12 an hour. Which in arizona is rare anyways

the average AT'er is six figure i thought you knew that.

i feel sorry for the poor bastard that doesnt make at least 100k

22, 123k i work 30 hours a week, and half of that is telecommuting from home. im underpaid but i like my job so i settle for the bad pay.

you have to be lazy or a HS dropout to not make at least 75k by 20, or if you end up going to college you dont earn until 22, but start at around 100k

my work is a couple miles from my house and i live to bike to work, but have been taking a break and letting my hootus heal, keeps getting caught in the spokes.

my GF does modeling but only because she enjoys it, i wouldnt feel like a man if my SO had to work.
