Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Sorry, Venkman, I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational [chat]

    Saying you're an engineer is really really unspecific. It's a catch all term and there are thousands upon thousands of possible jobs that you might actually have.

    Few engineers become rich, a significant amount have a very decent salary.

    Also, going into oil as an engineer is unspecific. The money you'll make depends on what you can be doing. As the Scandinavian countries push out tens of thousands of masters engineers every year, it's extremely logical to realise that very few, in fact, become rich.

    if I work for 40 years where I am now, my retirement 401K should have about 2.4 million in it.

    That's still relative to the job you actually have, not knowing at all what a 401K is I assume that 2,4million is good, so I assume you have a good job.

    I asked him how he feels about the relationship and bring up my concerns. I specifically ask about his feelings and thoughts, and he instead he makes it about me. I know where I stand. I don't need him questioning where I stand, because I've made it clear. I want to know his position.

    My income peaked at $94k in 2008.

    That was pretty nice.

    I am comforted by Richard Dawkins’ theory of memes. Those are mental units: thoughts, ideas, gestures, notions, songs, beliefs, rhymes, ideals, teachings, sayings, phrases, clichés that move from mind to mind as genes move from body to body. After a lifetime of writing, teaching, broadcasting and telling too many jokes, I will leave behind more memes than many. They will all also eventually die, but so it goes. - Roger Ebert, I Do Not Fear Death

    It's about political philosophy.

    This is like calling Budweiser beer.

    Well, my original intention was to bring up Budweiser to open up discussion of better beers.

    But now we're just talking about Budweiser.

    I won't lie, I had quite a bit of expendable income that year and made a lot of progress on my financial goals.

    But yeah, my cost of living is way too high. $65k is my break-even point.

    I don't have no bank job

    I don't have an education yet

    but working in a bank

    or the national bank, or the bureau of statistics is what I want

    from meeting people with the education I want to take it seems like all of them touch these bases

    I am happy with what I make right now, considering I'm still young and only have a high school diploma.

    If I make more in the future that would be awesome, but I can very much live off this.

    That's actually kind of a weird thought. I mean aside from vicariously motivated delusions of grandeur, parents mainly just care that you make enough money to live at a job that doesn't involve sucking dick.

    So I mean at this point the rest is just sorta icing on the cake.

    Granted I would need more money if I were to have kids and whatnot.
