At what point do you feel like you have extra money? - GoFuckYourself.com

stocktrader23 · 11-15-2003, 12:13 PM

How much do you have to make before you feel like you have extra money? Not just including your bills but normal spending whether it's stuff you need or want.

I messed up and made decent money when I was 18 so mine is pretty high. Just wondering what everyone else from both ends of the rainbow thinks.

I would say at $1000 a week I would barely be able to get by and around $2000 I would be comfortable. So anything over that I would consider extra.

I believe you. Once you go over an amount anything under that sucks.

yep, but if you need 300k to live each month, it may be time to simplify lol. i can get by on 2k a month if i have to. but i only consider money to be 'extra' if i am debt free and all bills are paid and some money has already been put in savings for the month.

quiet · 11-15-2003, 12:43 PM

i lived on less than 1K/month in University. much less.

cluck · 11-15-2003, 12:44 PM

Yeah it's definetly a shock to make less than you once were. When I was about 16, before I ever had a dayjob and had only been getting a $5 allowence before then I started spamming. I made some badass yahoo spammers that could get me $1200 a day on clickcash easy + an extra $300 with foreign dialer traffic. When that finally ended I had almost nothing yet cause I was a stupid kid and took it all for granted. Since then I've been making $100-$300 a day which isn't bad for a 20 year old. It pays the bills. Luckily since I started SEO the daily income is growing steadily but man I kick myself every day for not SAVING MY MONEY back then.

quiet · 11-15-2003, 12:45 PM

i remember starting with adult internet in late 96. started making around 3-4K/month right off that bat.

it was all the money in the world at the time lol

I don't think quiet spends 300k a month. He probably spends considerably less than most people with his income.

I wasn't asking what everyones bills are, just at what point you feel like you have extra money coming in to do whatever you want with whether it be spend, invest, or save.

Haha, I didn't do it with adult first but I had several steps of more money. My first good job made me around 3-4k a month and that was great. Then I went into a business with a friend making the same money but working for myself so that was better.

Then I fucked up and started selling on ebay. $5000 the first week in sales and I've been fucked ever since. Normal money just doesn't do it anymore.

PM2 · 11-15-2003, 12:56 PM

I had alot more free cash flow when I was younger. Now everything gets reinvested. But I have plenty set off to the side in case something goes wrong. Id say 5 yrs worth.

Reinvested isn't really like not having the extra cash. You had enough to reinvest what you wanted. Hell, that's the best part.

Libertine · 11-15-2003, 01:10 PM

I probably spend about $500 a month on "normal" stuff, so I have assloads of extra money. Most of it goes towards my savings account though, might be nice to retire when I finish university

Both property and publishing after my football career ended made my future as sound as a bell -

We went into web sites in 1996 and again, we are making nice profits - It's nice to be in the position when (Disaster) companies like globill, sypro and others go bust and catch us for several thousands - And actually lose no sleep worrying about it.

Didn't want to sell them real bad - Making a post about selling doesn't imply the need to sell "real bad"
Spoke to some real nice people who made me some good offers - I also spoke to you, who came over as a complete and utter fucking nutcase - (Add asshole to that too.)

The main reason I was considering selling my sites was down to wanting to spend more time with my adhd son -

Simple as that -

I had the choice - Looked at the options, and decided not to sell - Instead I hired a load of people to do most of the work for me.

don't know what normal is but if that investor guy buffet can live on a $100k/yr salary and millions of people can live on a 50k/year, then I would say everything above that is investable/luxury income...

Its pretty hard to have "extra" money.. the more you make, you more you'll spend. And the more you spend, the more money you need for "extra" money.. it's a cycle

Just depends on your lifestyle and how far you're willing to go

NiTe-HaWk · 11-15-2003, 07:23 PM

I say anything over $1,300 a month is extra for me.

Yes it depends on what lifestyle one cares about. My lifestyle is simple...and I spend a very small percentage of income.
