Do you make more than your age regarding your salary?

I read somewhere that Oprah said that as long as you are making more than your age number a year then you are doing pretty well for yourself.

For example, if you are 26 and you are making $38,000 a year, then you are successful, if you are 26 and making $20,000 a year, then thats making below average....I guess

I was supposed to go up to AUS$38,000 when I was 29, but quit work to have babies in 2000. Our money isn't worth peanuts so I still don't think that was very successful

damn, I cant wait 'til I turn 1 million years old...

I guess I am doing good. For once.

I've heard that before too, but unfortunately it doesn't really work if you live in an expensive city. For example, I'm 33, but if I only made $33,000 in NYC I would not consider that successful. It's not really enough to live on. (And I'm not a big spender. NYC rents are no joke.)

I'm successful!

If this is true, I'm doing pretty damn well for myself, especially considering I'm not a college graduate.

But like someone above said, it really depends on what the standard of living is where you are. $30,000 goes a LOT farther in podunk Alabama than it does in San Francisco.

If I keep going at the rate I am I will always make more than my age.

Interesting concept. I guess I'm in a very good place.

Woohoo

I am a success X 2!!!

As long as I don't get canned, I'll make more than my age 'til I retire (since I already do).
