In NJ, everything is so darn expensive, you couldnt live here, semi-comfortably,unless you make 80k or more.

With that said, NJ salaries may be averaging in the 100k range, but that doesnt really mean anything...because we have to spend more. The economy is so freakin upside down here.

We had guys working for our company, payed $26-$32 hourly for a skilled & experienced carpenter. A few years ago, they were doing well, now, at a relatively similar salaray, they can barely afford fuel to get to and from the shop in the morning. What a State !
Not to nitpick but 26-32 per hour certainly isnt in the 100k range, not even close really. On a forty hour week, this comes to a total of54k to 67k per year, and thats before taxes.

Im willing to bet that nowhere in this nation is the average income anywhere close to 100k.

I bring in 6-10k per year, but Im only 17, so I guess it works out.
