[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course, let me double your pay just for the asking while there are dozens of others who would do your job for the current level of pay.  Does not compute, sorry.[/quote]

If you are someone's sole employer, and you employ them FT, I do not care if you are Walmart or Mrs. Jones, the salary you pay must be enough to support that person in a healthy way. That includes health insurance, decent groceries, and the ability to choose a living environment that is comfortable and safe.[/quote]

Would you or OP care to quantify it?[/quote]

I am guessing that it would be a sum of the average cost of the things OP outlined. I am not sure saving for emergencies would make the list. All the other categories seem reasonable. Some things that are important but not on her list would have to be added, such as utilities and personal care like laundry. To me a living wage is based on the average cost of living, not the cheapest and not the nicest.[/quote]
