Depends a lot on where ya live too... But hell with my family of 4 if my parents brought in a combined 250k a year we'd be plenty happy... probably triple of what we bring in now.
Obama wins!!!!

Well, if you don't set goals then what is the point?
I was a financial advisor before, and first year they didn't even want you working for them if you were not making $80k a year. And that is first year. I hated it, so I no longer do that, but there is plenty of money in it.
Also, if you can get into sales, it is the highest paid profession in the world simply because there is no cap on how much you can sell. I watched my parents make over $1,000,000 a year a long time ago, so it is very possible.

o i'm not saying it's not, i'm a finance major and im gonna be pissed if i'm not making atleast 80 k by the time i've 28, but i'm just saying i'm not gonna bitch cuz taxes are cutting into my revenue. especially when it's all relative to how much everyone else is making
McCain ='s Warmonger.
Sarah Palin says the federal government shouldn't worry about the polar bear and wether or not it's endangered, leave that to alaska. also, she attributes global warming to cyclical patterns of weather change (not mankind). This from someone that should be familiar with the concept of the polar ice cap being 1/3 the size it was in 1950. "I'm not gonna answer that question, but what i will do is re-hash and talk about whatever i damn please."
Biden ='s Pimp.
Obaba ... no birth certificate having, muslim, plotting to take over america by supporting terrorists (but really, he won't salute the flag? wtf?) buddy buddy with the troops while the cameras were rolling then walked away like they didn't exist when the cameras went off. yada yada.
guess what - other countries have had black 'presidents' for a couple thousand years now. and women leaders as well. we aren't exactly leading the charge.
all's i'm saying is: balance the damn budget. i don't care how, just do it. cut programs. raise my taxes. i don't give a fug. just do it. it's embarassing to even call myself an american sometimes. china is making a billion dollars a -day- in interest. we are spending a billion dollars a day -in interest-. you and i can't live "in the red" ... that would mean we couldn't afford to buy food and feed ourselves. it's retarded. print more money. borrow more money. become more retarded. yay.

i think this guy ^ is right. i dont give a fuck who is president. all im asking for is just fix our national debt, get us off foreign oil, and get us as self-reliant as you can across all spectrum's. get us up out of the mud and back on top of that mountain. i want to be proud to say im American again.
BTW, fuck both parties. its all about being an Independent and free thinker through and through. dont just follow blindly the Red or the Blue.

Attitudes like this are the problem with your country.
Maybe people will want to go to college to...Uh I don't know....get an education....better themselves....gain more knowledge....LEARN TO DO THINGS...be able to contribute to society...etc...etc
Maybe if your greed filled minds weren't so obsessed with 'Money' and 'Wealth', and thought more about Life, love and peace, your country (and therefore the world, by proxy) wouldn't be in the shit heap we're all in right now.
it's fucked up that you see 'bettering your life' and 'making more money' as the same thing.
Maybe instead of setting your life goal as being 'make lots of money', it should be to 'be happy', 'keep food in your belly', 'raise healthy offspring', 'find someone to love', 'make friends'........ All of these things have REAL value (unlike a useless peice of green paper, or even worse an electronic record of said peice of paper)

just my two cents... any democrat is way better than any conservative/republican. The gap between them is gettin smaller, but still there are differences. is obama the right guy for the office? we don't know yet. What we do know, is that the states can't afford another republican administration. usa don't need people who are against abortions, don't need people who go around bombing any country that pops into their "minds", don't need people to crucify any "illegal substance" user, don't need people who believe in the bible literally, don't need people who judge others by colour, religion etc.

How fabulous was it hearing the news from my short Jewish babydaddy (aka Mr. Jon Stewart?)
NYC erupted into cheers -- the city was screaming and yelling and shooting off fireworks, it was amazing!
Oh, and MA decriminalized personal possession! My best friend, who lives there, told me that when he called last night. Maybe there's hope for this country after all...
also:
it's "ruse," not "roos"
it's "does," not "dose"
it's "you're" (you are), not "your" (possessive)
I'd have so much more respect for conservatives if any of them could spell.
