OT: How much is a LOT of money??
I was thinking about how that shiot changes as you grow older.... remember when $10/hr was the SHIOT????
So - where's your bar now?
30K - average?
50K - doing good
70K - just about right
100K - Ballin
Or is it 200 before it's ballin, 300?
Where could you be COMFORTABLE?
and if you make more money now than years before - do you find that 'more money - more bills' adage to be true?
I remember when 20K/year was like poppin Cristal and shiot! LMAOOOO boy - I was naive than a mofo, huh??

i ain't ask what's TOO much.... what's COMFORTABLE?????
there IS a difference - even I would say there's never too much - but I would be GOOD at around 100......

I look at some who post on here about driving this, and living in this particular place. Child pleazzzz half of the people I work with not only make ME but several others look homeless.
Too me ENOUGH MONEY is when you can cash pay WITHOUT financing for a large item purchase meaning at least $75k.

I was just telling somebody the other day that my first little supervisor job paid $31K, girl you woulda thought they paid me a million dollars. I was a ballin' fool. You couldn't tell me nuffin. Needless to say, now if somebody offered me $31K I would have to put my foot in dat arse!
What is funny though, is back then I had excess (more money in the bank, would travel, etc) but now I make substantially more than that and find myself living pay check to pay check. But I guess thats what a mortgage, two kids, and grown folks billz do to ya! Back then it was just me, a little cheap ass $350 apartment (that me and my boo split), my car that I owned in full, and a bunch of b/s spending. That was the life. You couldn't tell me I didn't have it going on then. Shoot, I thought if I ever was at the salary I am at now that I woulda been pushing a Lexus hard top convertible. LOL

Working on me - want to be better in everyway not just physically!!! Its a process no time to judge or be judged!!!!
I just want enough money to live comfortable and be debt free. I am still under $30,000 annually; so I can't even say what's too much; but I do know that I don't make enough!!!

Nikki, please don't take offense to what I said about if someone offered me 30K now. For me that was a long time ago, and honestly if I missed one pay check me and my babies would be on the street.
After reading your post I thought about how mine may have sounded and didn't mean it to hurt or offend anyone. I think as you make more you start acquiring more, so it takes more to keep. I in no way meant to insult people earning less than $30K.
