mean its still alot!? i mean ive lost jobs and been in that place where making $50 is good. so now hearing that you make like maybe $500/wk is somehow not alot? i mean its not the best 2000/month isnt bad. just consider all those who cant even find work. it just sounds selfish that you cant make ends meet on 2000/month. now im sure there are lots of expenses but it just seems extreme that you would spend more than 2000/month on expenses. i mean $12/hr is not the same as $25/hr but its still better than the $7.25/hr or the $9/hr ive made before in fulltime work. so tell me your experiences and what jobs you've had making x amount an hr. and you opinions on the economy
