    How about taking responsibility for your poor life choices which PUT you in the 5 figure earning bracket and stop hating on people who have made it to 6 figure incomes? Pointing the finger and accusing 6 figure earners of "crying" while you bawl your eyes out and stomp your feet because your skill set only allows you 5 figure income. Weak.

    BTW, I need you to get over here and finish power washing my driveway today. Thx.
    Depending on where you live making a low 6figure income is middle class. Not so much in FL but in certain towns it is. Up north and out west it definitely is.

      I don't disagree with you one bit. Don't mistake my post for bragging. I am in the 6 figure bracket and feel like it's gone as soon as it's earned too. Just tired of "angry guy" bitching because he didn't do enough work on his end when he was younger.

        Ever heard the saying "the more you make, the more you spend". A bigger house, a bigger electric bill, make more kids and more expenses... It's all relative. People have to live and save within their means.

          Look at teachers in Florida that received a 1% increase in salary but their health care expenses went up over 1%. Look at many of the coaches who don't get health insurance or benefits with the part time work.

            Boohoo. What teacher went into the profession thinking it paid a lot? Poor career choice. Not society's problem Move on.

              I switched from escort services and went back to street corner hookers. Quality went down, but my wallet definitely sees the difference.

                Make sure to have the elite health care insurance.

                  As FL continue to sinks lower on education rankings. Good plan.

                    Not giving our Florida students the opportunities to compete in higher education and careers, but construction, hospitality, and health care workers will be able to jump into jobs straight out of high school because of the demand in Florida.

                      We have a six figure income and barely break even each month. We do put 10% in 401K but other than that no real savings. Have two teenage boys that are driving and the insurance is unreal. We don't do anything extravagant but expenses add up.

                        Know of a family with two kids playing travel sports and they racked up 30K in soccer related expenses including the parents hotel costs. Teams need to be conscious of not racking up the team expenses with expensive breakfasts and meals, team buses, and so on. There are ways to cut down on the team travel fees.

                          Is it ethical for a team to get a bus for a tournament and split the cost when every family is not on board?

                            What do teams do when a player does not pay his or her share of the bus costs and other fees?

                              Depends. Is it a club policy that the players travel together. Or is it a team manager trying to be cool.

                                I would say that if the policy up front was you have to pay for a team bus then you agree to that when you join the team.

                                If it was added after folks joined the team, they should not have to agree to it since it was not part of the original commitment.
