answers 0:I work as a laundry/housekeeping aide at a small privately owned nursing home/home for adults and after health and dental insurance, I only clear around $970.00 a month. I didn't go to a community college so I can understand why I'm not making $75,000 a year, but less than $12,000? Is it normal to be earning so little while working a full time job?answers 1:I only make about $1,200/month, not including health insurance.My Cobra health insurance don't cover my medications.Together, cost me about $600/month.Let's not forget, I have two bachelors. (BA).I too feel extremely frustrated....answers 2:This is considered very low income, but if you had to pay for private health and dental insurance it would cost a lot more than your paying right nowl I am sure if you have children that you do dra! w food stamps and other type benefits, which probably amounts to a lot more a month. You have experience it seems,so why not look for something that pays more. I would certainly not blame you. Your not the only one working for this wage, the way the world situation is right now, be glad you even have a job....answers 3:You can do way better than that,there is no way you can come close to living on your own with that.Quit now before you waste anymore of your time letting people take advantage of you.answers 4:NO.I work for Arbonne international have built an amazing team with people that I have close relationships with here in WA.. The company has recently expanded business into Canada. Arbonne is a Health and Wellness company It is just beginning to explode in Canada. It is an amazing opportunity to start a home based business that if you follow a simple system achieve unbelievable success in a short period of time. Its a stable, integrity oriented 26 year old company that! as of October just launched into Canada. It has made an astro! nomical impact in the United States and most recently in WA state where I live. You can learn about the company at www.arbonne.com. Arbonne sells Swiss formulated Pure, Safe and Beneficial products that are also Vegan Certified. I joined Arbonne in March and it has changed my life. I am now free to stay home and be with my two kids. I would love to share these amazing products and opportunity with you. This is not a parties thing-we share the benefits of using Pure, Safe and Beneficial products and then teach people to order online at wholesale for themselves.The website has a wealth of information and divulges everything if you click on company. You can learn about the compensation plan which is phenomenal and everything else it seems other companies hide. Like how much people are actually making, ou can read success stories. I am so thankful that this was brought into my life.I am so passionate about these products that I truly believe that every person and their family s! hould be on them. I wouldn't have my family use anything else. They have something for everyone. Whether the business turns out to be a fit for people or not they are loving the products.I would love to share more if you are interested...answers 5:Yes that is normal, and normalcy is part of the problem, I come from a very different perspective. My goal is fiancial independance. Before I go further I want to explain that I realize not every one has a goal of wealth and some people are ok with going to work, coming home and going to work untill they retire.Nothing is wrong with this but you need to decide for yourself what you want out of life.The reason people make so little money is because we are trained to be employees that work a job.Some employees make real good money but you will always be trading dollars for hours. Of course you can go back to school and get a degree and make even 50- 70 a year but keep in mind that 70k a year after taxes depending upon your situation! can be actually 50-60 a year or less. If you are paying a mortgage tak! e away another 10-15 thousand a year, feeding a family, paying car pmts, insurance, utilities and money just to live day to day usually leaves a family very little or no money to save.I realize I'm giving you more than your question is asking but I work with a financial services company that is out side of the traditional corporate structure and is an opportunity to build a business with in a business and has a potential 6-7 figure income potential attached to it. I help people get out of debt and also recruit to help others build a biz..I get so tired of seeing people work themselves to death only to still drown in debt . The main point I am trying to make is that American middle class is fast becoming the new poor and unless people start exploring other types of business systems and our educational system starts teaching people to be business builders and leaders instead of teaching employeeisim.People will continue towork full time just to struggle. With a job you get p! aid once for your time but there are other types of business systems out there where your efforts can compound and duplicate. So it all comes down to you, If you choose to do something normal you will get normal results. If you shoot for greatness you can obtain greatness, it just depends where your belief system is at....answers 6:I worked in a nursing home full time and cleared aboet $800 a month with no insurance. Insurance would have costed me (company plan) $400 a month or more.. you are low income but a LOT of people do it on a lot less and have NO insurance..be thankful..apply for food stamps if you need it..you are paying for it with your taxes.answers 7:No, it's not normal. That's why it's called poverty. I'm not trying to be mean here, it's just a fact.Your question is worded very well. You have a good education, and you are capable of a lot more. If you can at all try and take some classes at the community college and get a degree in something that interests ! you. I worked full-time and went to school full-time, so I know it's n! ot easy...but it's worth it....answers 8:Yes, it's normal.answers 9:You're doing basically unskilled labor. Not knowing how much your insurance costs and what they are taking out for taxes, I can't say for sure but it looks like you're making around $15-19k/year before those deductions, which works out to $7.50-9.50/hour, and without a skill or an education, you really can't hope for much more than that. It's unfortunate but it's totally normal for that kind of work.answers 10:Well, no that's not normal, but health and dental is usually a huge chunk. You could probably find a job making a lot more. When i worked at a grocery store in college almost 12 years ago, I was bringing home $350 a week after taxes. So you should be making more!!
