🔊 ... Is $50 per hour the new Middle Class? Starting wages for fast food, zero experience jobs, is $15 to $20 per hour. Is the new minimum wage (forget the law) out there already $15 per hour? Professional jobs requiring a bachelors or masters degree often pay less... than bartender jobs.show more

The government has plenty of money just not for us Americans. America is not for Americans anymore - it’s for everyone who is not American - abroad and at home. It’s probably the only country that does this to its people.

The college days are coming to an end soon. 🚀 Fun Fact: Our graduates are making serious bank! 💸 💡 HVAC: $32/hr = $66,560/year 🔌 Electrician: $29/hr = $60,320/year 🚽 Plumber: $27/hr = $56,160/year All from our 100% online courses that take just 100-120 hours to complete! 🤯 Most students finish in under 3 months. 🏎️ The ROI on these trades is 🔥 compared to college. Prove me wrong! 😜

If you would have told me 3 years ago what my salary would be today, I would have been excited. Now, I feel just as poor as I was then. Our dollar buys significantly less than it used to.

There’s an upper class, a working class, and a homeless/jobless class That’s it If you’re living off a paycheck—you’re in the working class If you own enough assets to generate income for you, you’re in the upper class No assets and no paycheck? The last one

When I was 18, I made 5 * minimum wage & could buy a McDonald's cheeseburger for 50 cents. I made 50 cheeseburgers per hour. Cheeseburgers at McDonald's are now $3.50 & I barely make 2 * minimum wage. 10 cheeseburgers per hour. That's 400% inflation in 25 years. Just sayin 🤷‍♂️

@WallStreetSilv Easily afford a home in Arkansas or Mississippi you mean 😂

If it is I’m fucked. I’ve been an RN for 23 years and I don’t make that

@WallStreetSilv Easily afford is a huge street Check the home prices now old man 20 something year olds can barely purchase a new $400,000 home with a 6-7% interest rate even with 144K/year because every other expense has gone up exponentially as well

Well, in many cases the bartender gets a better education from the drunk at the end of the bar. His advice is free and likely based on experience! There is a lot to learn from poor choices if we just think about it. 🤓

College has become a scam. You used to go for three for reasons: 1) Learn stuff 2) Meet a network of people 3) Get a diploma that says you can learn #1 and #2 can be acquired for almost no cost on the internet. College only offers #3 now...at a very high cost.

@Babble365 @WallStreetSilv Minimum wage hasn’t gone up, yet the prices of everything has. So clearly it’s not due to labor costs. Yet that’s the first excuse when people deny raises. “Well if we pay more in labor, we have to raise prices…” you raised prices already.
