How much do you make per year ? (anonymous) (2 Viewers)

It is crucial to invest in yourself. You could make $15k or $300k, but it is important to always look to better yourself...you never want to shortchange yourself.

In the end, money just gives you the ability to buy a bunch of shit you don't need. It won't make you happier, just makes it easier to pay the bills. Growing up in a lower class household in Philly, I would have never envisioned spending $1,000+ on poker chip sets, so for that I feel very blessed.

P.S. My wife doesn't give a shit how much we make - I still need her permission to buy poker chips

Oh wait maybe that was me depositing the check I got after selling my house and paying off my mortgage

Better than me. I bought in 2009 and I had to write a check for $12,000 to close in 2014, and that was after putting $50,000 into the house.

Oh to have purchased a house before 2007 and reaped the benefits....

Surprisingly I didn't buy pre 2007. I bought my townhouse in 2012 with 5% down and sold it this last fall for close to 50k more then I paid for it . Not bad for my first home purchase lol. Would have sold sooner but I didn't want to pay capital gains so I had to stay there for 3 years.

We home school so the Mrs. Doesn't work outside of the home.

It's good in the long run and I wouldn't change it...but any income she would bring home would be disposable.
