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

I’d have to ask my wife.

Wasn't gonna brag but I bought my wife a Navigator for Valentines Day....

Is that one of those Garmin watches?

I read they can tell you where you are and everything.

It's in the garage, I'll go take a pic.

LED headlights bruh....

You must be sober today. Congrats on taking the big step.

I make a lot...of inappropriate comments at work.

Retired I make about half of what I used to. But I live better now and have more in my pocket then I ever did. If your lucky enough to live long enough to pay everything off, it don't take as much.

I was raised, like probably a lot of folks here, to believe that it's taboo to discuss how much money one earns. It's just not something that folks did. I'm still very uncomfortable discussing it, but I guess I can't really think of a reason why. So screw it, if you're really interested, here goes.
I retired from the military and my pension is around $33k/year. I work as a program manager for a shipyard that works on Navy ships and my salary is $125K with a 6% 401K match and an annual incentive bonus that usually falls around 10% of my salary. Maybe a bit more, maybe a bit less. I've been fortunate and pretty frugal, so my monthly bills are covered by my pension. My only debt is my mortgage, so I'm able to sock a good bit away for retirement. I turn 55 this Wednesday and plan to probably keep working for 5 more years. I guess that's a bit more info than you asked for, but that's it.

More important than all that is I woke up today, I'm pretty healthy, my kids and grandkids are doing great, and I have a good woman that loves me. And a couple of really good dogs.

Or don't have a bunch of stuff to pay off.

No need to keep up with the Jones'.

was gonna send my condolences before I saw the vacume pic.....

SamOlson: Long since retired but I will bring in ($82,000.00 after taxes!) this year from pensions and small investment.
VarmintWife will add another $36,000.00 to that (after taxes) from her pensions - so I am gonna go spend some!
And as an additional comment - my monies go a LOT farther here in Montana than where I spent my "working life" earning it!
Bought my wife a new Toyota whoop-de-doo Highlander last month - NEVER gonna worry about "car fatigue" (older tired cars) ever again.
Good planning PAYS off in the long run!
Hold into the wind

A cousin fugker in Wisconsin wanna talk sobriety.

TFF

I’m wet.

That's a relief! I thought it was gonna be a fancy vibrator or something inappropriate.

They do that in Wisconsin?

You're most welcome.

Raised 3 stepkids and 3 of my own on not much money. So am behind the curve on being able to retire.

My job does have OT available. But injuries, health issues and just getting older.....make it so I have to take time off my regular schedule.

Dunno if Ill be able to retire.

Below 6 figures even w bonuses.

I made $74,000 last year as a chemical processor for a chemical plant. My wife’s an RN she made $82,000 as a local director of occupational health.

Sam , I make about what you make counseling women in The Sex Workers Unions in the Las Vegas and Reno districts. Many of them need assistance with retirement planning and Medical Savings Plans.

Not an attempt to make you feel bad , but our take home together is considerably less than the average Female sex worker.... in Vegas anyway.
