40. Then do nothing.
But complaining about what others earn changes your personal situation in what positive way, exactly?


The economy isn't just shitty for you, Skippy.

Years ago, when my earning power was declining in a wage-stagnant segment of the economy, I didn't just sit there and bitch about what others were earning, I changed careers to one that had greater earning potential.


But then again, I didn't stare at my 'two college degrees' and magically hope that they'd turn into Treasury Bearer Bonds.


Oh, and hock the 'design awards'. See if you can get a few bucks for them.

Accolades never paid the bills, I found that out years ago.

Just a free tip.
