[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You can’t be serious? First, you don’t know if she’s a 15,14, 13, or 12. I started as an attorney in government as a 12 and it took a LONG time to get up to the top of the pay scale.[/quote] Also, maybe a veteran who is disabled has a lot of medical expenses? You frankly have no idea. These boards are ridiculous. On the Money & Finance board, everyone talks about how you can't possibly get by in this area on less than $250,000. Here, a federal salary plus disability is "good money"? Do the people making these comments actually live in this area?[/quote] Actually some of us do have an idea. My spouse is retired elisted and the pension is far less than that so her husband was an officer for that amount. And, VA has low co-pay especially when you combine it with her insurance or no copays if he was medically retired and has tricare. It's very good money. It's all lifestyle choices. But, again, some of us choose a 1000 square feet house, etc. to make it work. We are very comfortable on far less than what they earn and have savings as as a contractor family there is no backpay.[/quote]
