Consider the average family income is 35,000 a year , over a 10 year period they earn 350,000 . Imagine working 10 years to earn less then 500,000 dollars . Who makes over 500,000 a year ? Besides actors ,sports ,and music stars can you think of another group that makes over 500,000 a year . Like say real estate agents who sell over 20,000,000 a year can earn this much for showing houses while construction workers who build them make 20-40 thousand a year .So building homes does not pay as well as selling them does .
50 dollars an hour would be good money right and this still only adds up to 100,000 a year. Is a sales person worth 250 dollars and hour and the people building them worth only 22.50 ?
Things are out of wack in america .It would be nice to continue selling the dream of earning big money ,but the reality is that you and your parents will be making less then 50 dollars an hour .
I think parents fail to teach kids about money or taxes and who gets paid what and why .
