I make about that (sometimes more) and I'm starting up another business since I'm still living with my dad. I can basically buy whatever I want, but Ihold my self back from doing so because if I was always balling then pretty soon I would not be ballin'.
This month my bank account saw about $10,000 a very good chunk was profit.
right now though this is how I live:
$100 on Gas a week
$40-100 on Clothes a week
$100-300 on Entertainment in a month (this month, was out of control during the summer)
$50 on food a week
$50-100 on the ganja a week
It's nice to not pay bills, so I'm taking advantage of that right now so when I buy my house and start living by myself it's not even a problem.

& I love how people say "80k isn't that much in ___"
doesn't matter what city you live in, 80k after taxes(plus benefits) will have you living Good unless you are absolutely horrible with money
Last I read the average U.S. household income is around 50k.
Say you alone are making 80k single. With a partner that's at least 120k+ together. That's much better than most of the U.S. population

I live in NY as well and you can survive off of 80k in NYC. This is 80k AFTER taxes we are talking about not before. If you can't live off of80k a year after taxes then its you not the city. It may be expensive but it is more than possible to live on that salary. Its possible especially if its justyou without any kids. If you have a chick who is making a nice salary and ya'll go half on rent and bills you'll live more than comfortable. NTdon't take any of that seriously. These cats are overreacting.

Yo..im currently in HighPoint right next to Greensboro..I go to High Point University.. But been around here my whole life..I wouldnt considermoving any farther north Lol. But yeah i have seen some of those condos in Raleigh...Originally Posted by tml09
Where in NC do you live? Here in Raleigh prices for newly built luxury Apartments ( not downtown) are around 1000 or so. There are also a bunch of nice houses for very decent prices. I was amazed when I saw the prices for homes around here. Newly built 5 bedroom 3 bath houses for 260,000 is a good deal in my book. I'm currently studying engineering at ncsu, so after a few years of job experience I should be looking at a similar or higher salary. I would be very happy living with that much money. Now, if I was to become a doctor... 200,000 and more a year
