[quote=Anonymous] Just coming here to note that according to most calculators, for the DC area, the middle range of income is between 70K and 150K for a family of 4. But I sympathize with what appears to be OP's real gripe - the fact that some people are richer than others, after making certain choices that not young adults understand will close or open certain financial doors. The truth is that a lot of people in service-oriented professions do not seek out money as a first priority. Some STEM degrees never lead to wealth. Publicly-funded research, the one working on your cancer and your diabetes, is one of them. And some Humanities degrees can be parlayed into higher paying careers. It's a matter of luck, social networking skills, interest... So for me, the important thing is to avoid disparaging other people's choices. There are highly intelligent, highly able people in all walks of life. [/quote]
