Absolutely stunning: top 1% in the US (383,001) will only get you top 11% in Stamford, CT - where you’ll be more than 2x off their 1% number, which is $908K.

The depressing part, for me, is that even though I’m in the top 20%, that means 80% of this country is doing worse than me, and I’m still struggling.

Well said!!

You know, funny story. Last week I wrote a post about how hard it is to be poor.

For Science...

I once crop dusted at the grocery store. I was in an empty aisle, and thought I was ok. This couple ended up walking into it, as I was leaving the area, and she IMMEDIATELY starts hitting her boyfriend and loudly blaming him while he protested his innocence.

Over-squeezing leads to bitterness.Bitterness leads to hate. Hate leads to the Dark Side.

The food-washing lobby just got to them all. Alton’s been in the pocket of Big Wash for decades.

A note to hiring managers. We know that you receive scores of resumes and not everyone will get an interview. However, those who actually get the opportunity to sit down with someone should receive some form of communication after, even if we don’t get the job.

I’m sorry, I meant that comment sarcastically. I’ve been feeling down lately about how much debt my wife and I are in, so I turn to humor (even bad humor).
