Your average monthly income - Page 4

sfcjetjr · 11-20-2012, 06:59 PM

24 years military, retirement check, disability pay, plus 10 % of gross income invested over 24 years puts me at about 5800.00 a month. Fully retired at 43. Good enough for me! But it came at a price!

This is true, but I look at it as just raising the bar to the next level to keep myself motivated.

The business somewhat runs itself when you hire the right people. I enjoy my IT job, keeps my mind fresh. If it gets the point that I have to put more time in ND then I will step away from it.

Agreed, seven 12's is painful. Sounds like prison to me. But....it's not like you do that all month long. Probably 7 on 4 off or 7 on 7 off, I have lots of friends that do that in the oil industry up here. So it's not like you're bringing in $3100 x 4 each month. But still, you're doing ok. Nice work.

It's NDT bro i get out of my truck maybe 3-5 times a day.. And that check doesn't include per Diem which is 120$ a day.. 7 days a week.. Most of which I work 5-6 11's.. But yeah it's pretty gravy I must say. Also to add I'm only 23 so not worried about a 8-5 my man

LOL... This is exactly why you can never tell how much money someone has by the car(s) they drive.

Personally, I'd rather have 10k in the bank and drive a Honda.

To each their own. I personally wouldn't deal with the hours/travel for your job for twice the money. It's just not a lifestyle I want to live. I probably wouldn't have minded at your age though.
