Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire How much Money do you make?

Most major airline Captains are in the $500k-$600k total compensation range (W2 + retirement packages). Some more, some less. I hear there’s been a few go over $1 million at UAL and DAL due to special circumstances.

No where near as much as we did, when we were in Australia.

But, we live way better lives here !

Enough

The 101.5-hour weeks are adding up. Trudging ahead with plans laid until about May. Should've been doing this crap 30 years ago! Hope you are doing well.

Enough.

I have no income. I live on the interest.

It's not how much money you make. It's the value you create!

Wife and I eat lunch ever day down to the Senior Center. That and the Gov dairy supplement keep us fed purty well.
We don't have no mortgage on the ground but I might need a new tent come spring.
Bless Biden, my student loan got paid.

Have more money than time. Could be doing real well if it wasn't for all the taxes....the amount is staggering if you add up everything you pay taxes on.

In spades....

I am retired. I don't make any. I am getting SS and a pension. Have some money making money. Wife drawing SS and her pension. We are living the same as we were when I was bringing in much more. But We have no debt.

Coolio Dude.

I know what you mean. Last job I had a good number of pay periods with 120 extra hours in two weeks.

Sucks being away from home though.

Good luck with it.

I'm terrible about saving money but at least try to spend it on cool, tangible chit.


End of the year 2023 we had $700 in our savings account. That made me nervous.

Answer was/is dependent on the given day, and variability wide. Might be as little as zero for a spell - then, once in a while - just great.

Having traveled a long, long winding road, after those uphill switchbacks earning power can become a small issue. There have been showers of God's blessings, and we are grateful.

I make a living I never thought was possible for me. I live where I want to live, enjoy what I do, and am well respected. I will retire in 9 years and 3 weeks.

I was going on a calendar year to year type of time frame.

I don’t care what I make, I think it would be more fun to guess what someone else makes.

I’ll start with BuzzH. I think he makes at least $100,000/year, works probably less than anyone else since he claims to hunt over 100 days/year, and when he does what he calls work, is maybe 15 hours/week which would make him the highest paid member of the campfire…

I am gonna answer this question when I get to a keyboard. I looked back at my prior answers, I can be a real dick!

I didn't go back and read the old posts!


But I did read the first one, had no idea I was so broke back then...
