[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty sure I'm one of only two people in my school (I'm a teacher) with a paid off house, and at least 50 people work there, many with advanced degrees, and some with decades in the district. The only other person who has paid theirs off is early 60s and will be retiring soon. They paid theirs off this month.

I'm early 30s and we paid it off in our 20s.[/quote]
I paid off mine in my 20's, but we didn't tell anyone. WHO ON EARTH Discusses their finances/ mortgage with co workers. So tacky.
Maybe your other coworkers just don't want you to know their private info.[/quote]

I'm in a job with a public salary scale. Finances aren't a secret. To me, what's tacky is working for a company that can pay you less than your coworker with the same experience simply because your coworker is your company's preferred color, ethnicity, or gender.  :roll: [/quote]

You post is useless.
My salary and everyone who works there have a publically known salary. We know what we all make also. That says nothing about knowing their finances!
We make about 90k. Some people are the primary or only bread winners, others gave spouses who make triple.  How would I assume to assume to know their finances. I private school and keep that quiet also. You sound incredibly naive.[/quote]
