All of the time I see people who literally seem to make fun or or mock those who do not make vast sums of money or apparently wipe with one hundred dollar bills. I am sure you can recall many posts where someone tells someone to quit now, leave the industry, or go back to burger flipping. I still even see these types of posts when someone reports to be making eight hundred to one thousand a week.

I know many feel it is in the spirit of the board or whatever to make as many people feel as bad as possible about themselves whenever they can. I am also sure many of the haters are more than likely envious of the others accomplishments. I would just like to bring a little perspective or reality into all of this.

If you happen to be living in the US and happen to be making more than seven hundred and eighty five bucks a week you are doing fairly damn well. Before the haters come and scoff at that figure keep in mind that is the average household gross median income. Typically that is including more than one income earner in the household as well. If you are making close to that or more you are doing better off than the vast majority of Americans. So do not let anyone get to you or make you feel like you are doing less than you should.

I will not pretend and say making more does not matter, nor will I claim that is not reasonable to do so with hard work ethics and a strong desire to do so. What you do currently have though is an occupation that is paying you a fairly decent rate of pay despite what the haters and others claim. Keep at it and do not let them get to you.
