You don't have a HHI.

Don't be a prick. If they live together and pool their resources, they have a HHI, whether or not they are married.
Personally, I wouldn't have such an arrangement without being married or at least engaged, but that's a different topic.

I am clearly just above the poverty line compared to everyone else on this board. 6 figures is NBD, but 250k, 500k?? What are all the late 20/30 year olds (who are not dr, lawyers) doing? TIA!

You make more than I do and I am 50. Have an MS degree.

OP. Why? To get cool points on an anonymous forum? If you lie about your salary on DCUM, or anything else to make yourself sound cooler on DCUM, I hate you.

Sorry, this may sound dumb, but what do you mean by metro operators? You drive the metro train? Please excuse my ignorance.

You are dumb if you can not recognize an a**hole when one posts on DCUM. Of course train operators do not have a HHI of $410k.

I wasn't sure. I was thinking maybe they meant they work in operations for metro. English is my second language.

Yes, we've both been metro operators for years. DH moved into the ROCC (control center) and is a controller now so that was a nice bump.
