My wife and I both got 'shutdown' bonuses, and they shorted the hourly workers, then overpaid us to compensate.
I'm already shuddering to see what our total income will be -- I know for me alone I'll make over $100k, but, as I said, that's not normal. I expected to make about $80-85k at the start of this year. I think the wife and I will clear $150k on our final W-2's -- we'll have to just wait and see.

in which case, if you ticked the $90K-$100K it would be pretty close. ball park figures are fine for this sort of poll...

Perhaps you could cross reference these polls with Drew's "Do you lock your doors" poll and identify some prime targets.

Where I live, $50k is living high on the hog, but in a different area it is poverty level.

Yep... where I live, and it's only a few hundred miles east, $50k means you can't even afford to shop for a house nevermind buy one.

Yep. Here I have a nice 2000 SQ FT house with a garage and I only pay $450 per month for mortage and escrow. In metro areas of the states, a house like that would cost about $2000 per month.

I would have responded to the poll, but there wasn't a 'none of your ---smurfing--- business' option.
