Whoa, an internship paying $40 an hour. that is freaken insane.

breakdown. 2100 in take home, which is after lets say 25% (low end) taken out for taxes. so gross is 2625 for 80 hours of work or $32 an hour.

52 weeks in year, at 1312 a week? Thats an internship that pays around $70,000 a year!?! holy crap. quit school and work your way up in that company.

Should I pay off my CC debt?

I got paid yesterday and now i'm sitting on 3,000 dollars in checking with 2,000 dollars in CC Debt. I have a good amount of funds in my ING and Scottrade accounts.

I get paid every other week and my next paycheck should be around 2,100 dollars but that will be the last one I get before I end my internship and start school again.

Should I pay off my CC debt? I'm a student, 20 y/o, no real liabilities or committments (rent, car note, etc). Just need to worry about food, gas, and entertainment.

What would you do?

btw, if you carry credit card debt, yet you say you have a good amount of funds in your scott trade account, you are an idiot.

unless your able to get a return of more than 18.99% a year.
