[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we talk finances for a second?

When we start off the the Pearsons Jack is a blue collar construction worker. Suddenly he gets a job in project management and earns more money.

Suddenly Rebecca and Miguel are so wealthy?

Also how rich is Randall? He has a beautiful house, nice car and a hot SAHM.

Kevin is a millionaire?

What about Kate? Does she have a trust fund?[/quote]
Of course, everything is exaggerated for TV. Even the Connors in Roseanne were supposedly dirt poor, but who would watch a show with some super crappy house? Know what I mean. On tv middle class is always exaggerated, upper middle even more so.[/quote]

^This. Plus, Rebecca probably inherited money when her (seemingly) wealthy parents died & Kevin actually [i]would[/i] be a millionaire --several times over-- after being the lead on a hit network show for several years. The main cast of the Big Bang Theory all get paid $1 million per episode, as did the cast of Friends the last few seasons (& that was over a decade ago). Even if The Manny wasn't quite popular enough for him to bring in as much per episode as the actors from those shows, he still likely would've been making several million per season once the show became a hit.[/quote]
