i work for kmart and just lost $15k a year after i got cut. Circus elephants make more than i do. However, i should be getting a raise this week since they're making me a supervisor again.

Circuit City product specialist making $8.75 just got a raise, and youth soccer referee making about $10 per game (1 hour 15 minutes) and soon to be lifeguard making $8.00 an hour.


All three jobs are pretty fun though, excluding selling stupid warranty plans.

I am an ACH specialist of a technology bank, as well as Chief Accounting Officer of a multi million dollar limited liability corporation.

I make enough to be financially worry free.

Oh come on, man. Don't be a tool. Anybody who makes $115k a year, and getting a $4000 raise, is doing just fine. A better question to ask yourself is, if you suddenly lost your job - would you be able to pull in half that much at a new company?

I work for a family owned business.

I work about 2-3 hours a day. I have turned a spare room into an office. I never have to drive to work, can (and often do) work in my pj's and have no boss. I bring home approx. $400.00 per week. Plus whatever I want to buy or where I want to go... I can usually get the business to pay for it. If I wanted a real job, I could make a lot more with better benefits.

But I no longer have car payments, no mortgage, (everything was paid in cash on purchase date) and my b/f has a lot of $$$.

;)
