[quote=Anonymous]Another single mom here making less than 100k. Yes, there are many women on this board with household incomes of $200k+. But what does it matter? It's like reading Vogue so you can get depressed about not being able to afford a $600 cardigan. The incomes here are higher than average because there is a disproportionate number of lawyers in Washington because of Congress and lobbying firms. Also, military contractors and govt workers who get great benefits. But while people here may be making more than average, the cost of homes is equally high so they really don't have as much discretionary income as you'd think, particularly folks in DC who pay for private school. It just makes the DMV harder for single moms who make a good salary but can't keep up with some of the white collar dual incomes. I just don't pay attention and focus on things that matter (I.e. Family, friends , health etc). [/quote]
