this cant be a serious question. we would be rich if we made $40 an hour.

EDIT: okay guys I get it. But this really depends on where you live. and where I live $40 would be rich no matter what! Now please stop quoting me and telling me that you make so much an hour and are no were near rich. It all depends on were you live when people ask these questions.

We're a family of 4, living in MI. We live comfortably on $18.00 an hour. We're also able to put a little money into savings each week.

Is this a joke? I live on 14.72 an hour. Part time. My husband makes 12.50 full time. We survive.
