[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just reading in the nanny forums about a nanny who demands $61,000 per year.  I find this insulting on so many levels.  I made $38,500 per year in my first associate position out of law school.  The most I've ever made is $95k per year. Several of my friends who have grad degrees make between $65k-$100K per year.

Ok...i have never even completed my undergrad and make 240k/yr.

College clearly doesn't teach you how to be resourceful.

I would be so depressed if i spent as much time and effort in school as yourself and had a below average income years later to show for it.

I really wonder what went wrong for some of you people. Especially the poster up thread who went to Harvard, that is just incomprehensible.  Don't you all see opportunity? We're surrounded by it. What kind entrepreneurial skills did your parents teach you, if any? Were you expected to work as a young adult/teen? Ever have to just figure life out or was everything spoon fed to you?[/quote]

What do you do? Maybe you just got lucky?

I was calculating what realtors make just the other day and realized that if you only sold 10 homes a year, you would make about 240K in N. Arlington.  :shock: [/quote]

Following the dream and working as an engineer in the renewable energy industry.  I'm raking in over $60k a year!  Lucky? Sure. Lucrative? Not so much.[/quote]

This question was posed to the PP who makes 240K and didn't finish college, not to you. I still haven't seen an answer.

Yoo hoo - 240K PP reply back, please. [/quote]
