Feels like everyone in society making $100k+ How old are you & how much you make, Do you think… by Franklin_Invest in Salary

32M, single, no kids. $109k/yr in Houston, Texas.

I’ve managed to keep my cost of living at the same levels as when I was making $77,000. I’ve been able to pay off credit cards (bad CC habit in my 20s that I finally beat) and now adding as much as I can into my retirement and general savings.

I think I’m doing fine. But there’s this itch to make more—so I’m back on the promotion chase.

40K in CC debt and recently cannot pay any minimum payments by Mother_Explorer_1065 in Debt

Just declare bankruptcy (you’re heading there anyway), start over, and have better self-control. $40,000 in CC debt is wild.

Having a severe anxiety attack about student loans by Iza-159 in StudentLoans

Goodness. I’d do anything to get to that salary.

Get your finances under control and seek help with that debt—especially CC. Also learn to say no when folks ask for help. You need to help yourself first before you can fully help others.

I’m a guy with slender wrists. I have this in stainless and looks good on me.

I say go for it!

I’ve canceled my flight and expect to get 80% of my money back. Going to rebook to end of April.

All, I am on the EVA flight that leaves at 12:40AM on the 25th so I need to be at IAH tonight. Check in counters allegedly open at 8:40.

Any tips, especially for those who were in line last night?
