What is your annual salary and what do you do for a living? I was always told that if your annual salary equals your age, you're doing fine. I am not there yet despite many years of experience. Am I the only one? Cleveland, Ohio

I think that totally depends on where you live and your expenses.
My hubby is 42 and makes about $65K. That seems like alot, but not if we still lived in our native SoCal-- where the median home price is about $550K.
And we have a ton of medical bills (I had cancer, daughter has Crohn's disease), so that $65K gets spent pretty fast. We drive old cars, but paid off, don't take expensive vacations and own a 3 bedroom home. Not extravagent, but we are happy and glad to still all be here together.

I don't work anymore but when I did I was a Retail Store Manager and I was 26 and I made 35,000 yearly plus bonus. My husband is 27 and makes 60,000 as an Assest Protection Regional Manager.

You mean, a 30-year-old should make $30,000.00 per year? I never heard that one. I know a lot of people who are either way over, or way under, but no one right on the money!

Don't I only wish? I am almost 59, a disabled Vietnam Vet living on not very much, a far cry from 58K!

They were equal years ago, but no more. I've just gotten increasingly aged, and I can't keep my income abreast with my age. God Bless you.

No, sorry, I am not 30,000 years old.
