$4000 a year is crazy, i need $4000 a month to operate the FYC camp



My bills require I clear 7k a month, between the two mortgages, utilities, divorce settlement, food, drink and lines of credit I have to pay every stinkin' month.

I pay more than 34k a year in Federal income taxes, not even counting what my company pays in taxes.

BTW I am not in the top 1% of US earners I think that is somewhere over $250k.

1% is roughly 400k or more. 8% is 150k or more.

I'm thinking, live in a third world country and work virtually.

It costs a lot more to live here than most countries in the world and we also don't tax nearly the same amount as they do, either

That sounds like a good plan Jezza I would totally do that if I was able to

Nice. My family is still not in the top 1% worldwide. Close in 2011, though, with all the OT my dad worked.

I owe 3 more monthly payments to the IRS and I'll have a HUGE bill off my back. Then I can afford to eat every day as opposed to 3 times a week like now. Been paying those blood sucking bastards for almost 8 years now.

Then I can start earning money again without them taking it all and I might be able to move into lower middle class in earnings again.

Don't ever make real money, other people just take it all anyway.

My dog lives with me and I know he doesn't pull down 34K a year.

Last year I made $4,738 bucks, all of it in interest.

I wonder if that gets me into the top 50% of the world?

That would be nice.



No because *obviously* net worth doesnt mean a thing. Its *only* about what you make in W-2 wages per year, duh.


Nice interest though. Whats your principle? 2 million?

The problem is that you have to live in a third world country. And possible raise children there.
