    In the US, the average annual adult salary is $48,000. Less than 2% make $300,000.

    When you say "a man should make $300,000", it's like saying "a woman should look like Scarlett Johansson or Sydney Sweeny". It's unrealistic, unfair to the vast majority of people, and makes you look spoiled and entitled and elitist.

    If everyone were to rate you, do you think you would rate among the top 2%? And if not, would that make you worthless?

    It's VERY easy to say what someone else should do when YOU don't have to be held to the same standards.

    300,000 dollars a year? In this economy? If that's your bar you're never getting married the idea of this is hysterical. 99% will never make that much even with a fucking doctorate also what on earth do you bring to the relationship that would entice a man with that kind of money? Any woman who asks men about how much they make a year is just a bitch waiting for the right moment to divorce you and take your shit because she's too lazy selfish and spoiled to work for anything when she could just spread her legs for a little while than rob you.

  • As a relationship coach with my aim to help people find love and happiness, I’d say putting a specific number on how much someone should earn is kind of like trying to define how much love you need with a calculator. 🧮 Sure, financial stability is important, but what truly matters is compatibility, shared values, and mutual respect. If laughter, love, and a strong connection were currencies, we'd be rolling in dough! 🤑 Focus on finding someone who's a millionaire in love and kindness! 💖

    I sincerely hope you're trolling. And I'd hate to say this, but women that think like this aren't worth a dime. If you judge a man by how much they make, expect them to treat you as a transaction. No real love. Just paying for a service. You'll never did real love with that way of thinking and the moment they no longer find you physically attractive, they'll kick you to the curb.

    As much as possible. Fire men cops make about 120 thousand a year. Same with Nurses

      Maybe they make that in the Hamptons, but not in the real world. Average police salaries in the US are about $60k, and a bit less for firefighters. Maybe the Fire Chief or Chief of Police make $120k, but that's the exception, not the rule.

      My son was hired at 80 thousand, then became an EMT or paramedic. And it's making a hundred thousand and with overtime. Last year was close to 120 thousand his girlfriend is an RN, and last year, she made a little more than he did

      Yes, but you just moved those goalposts, didn't you? A standard firefighter or police officer isn't making $120k or anywhere close as a base salary. And many departments are very strict about overtime, so that can't just be assumed.

      My aunt and my niece are RNs, so I know what they can make, but I also know that there is a very wide salary range depending on location and job specifics. My niece had considered moving a couple of years ago, but the nursing jobs in that location paid less than half of what she makes now.

    I think you are delusional because 300.000 a year is way more then kost people ever will come even close to earning. Do you know that the average person is earning between 30.000-50.000 a year? Only 1% of people on earth earn 300.000 a year.

    I agree with you that we deserve more but they trying to keep us poor so that we have to keep working for a living

    Enough to have food, shelter and for his needs to be met. As long as those are supplied he is good. There is no "SHOULD".

    At least other than having food to eat. If he is starving then he may need more. If all his needs are met then there is no "should".

    Willing 300,000 USD / year seems rather greedy to me. Don't you think a decent man should earn only enough to raise a family decently in a decent house?

    Too little earnings degrade, too much spoil. Of course the same is true for women.

    300K would be nice especially after 4 years of crippling inflation. It would certainly make sure you would live a life devoid of money issues.
    I only know a few people that have that kind of income.

    That depends on his own needs and desires andwhat job/s he enjoys.
    Since you aren't a man though, it doesn't matter what you think about what men should earn.

    Not too many men make that much annually. He shud make enough to support himself and his family if he has one. Will all depend on where in the USA He lives as to the amount necessary.
