    How much do you earn?

    We've got a real cross section of society here, and it's a great mix, motorbikes being our common interest, a great leveller. Prompted by another current thread re' tax - I'd be interested to know a little more about the economic background of some of this site's members. Obviously we come from all walks of life, but I for one am a nosy bastard, and would love to know what the earnings range of people here is.

    So the following poll is intended to illustrate, in confidence, how much we each earn a year.

    Please be honest, don't include bonuses or overtime. I'm interested in knowing what your base salary is.

    Thanks.

    It's VERY confidential.

    Do we put what our friendly accountant tells the tax man what we earn to keep our taxes down (I'm poor, honest!), or what we really get to play with?

    What your contracted salary is. And don't worry - I don't work for the IRD.

    Hmmmm...
    So far, I know that either Biff, Drunken Monkey or (less likely) sAsLEX says he earns between $40k and $50K.
    What shall I put...
    Hmmmm.....
    Do I put what I would've been earning before I made some dumb career choices ($80k+), or what I'll soon be earning once my boss finds out I do nothing all day ($0).....
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.

    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Individual or household?
    Speed doesn't kill people.

    What I do if I'm studying and earn money at the same time? Very useful scheme as it keeps me with new toys & able to save towards a new bike (hopefully next year)
    Life is difficult because it is non-linear.

    He assumed each one of us answered the poll when we posted. When I looked at the poll, if you, sAsLEX, were not the one who ticked $40-50K, then you must have been on 100+!

    Edit: assuming everyone is honest, of course!

    A question I was just wondering myself - I suggest you select that you're a student. And that all full time students should. Part time stundents should select the appropriate salary please,

    Ta.
