K means Kelvin...NOT! If this was a serious question then you are a Bubblehead! If not, I like your sense of humor ;^)

The K means thousand so 150k would mean 150 thousand a year.

It is just another way to say Thousand. Instead of I made 150 thousand last year, people say I made 150K last year. U know these days everyone is shortening everything. Its just slang like bling bling

K is short for the Greek word "kilo", which means 1000 (as in kilometer, kilogram, etc.). so if someone makes 150k, they're getting $150,000 per year.

150K = $150,000 a year. Not bad. K is foreign, it comes from the metric system and is short for "Kilo" - a Kilometer is 1000 meters.

multiply by 1000. Literally, from the Greek "Kilo" meaning "1000" as in Kilometer or Kilogram.
