That was the median income for the USA in 2008 according to the Census Bureau Report.

The Poverty Rate moved up to 13.2% meaning 39.8 million people were living in poverty last year and 46. 3 million people were without health care.

I personally did not come close to reaching that, but the median income for a male, full-time worker in Nebraska is substantially lower than that. It hovers somewhere around 39K.

Working is way over-rated anyway. If it wasn't for the health insurance I would much prefer the quiet dignity of being a bum.

that was median household income... which makes it even more depressing if you consider the % of dual income homes these days.

I used to be a bit north of that, then the newspaper industry blew up.

I'm part time at a little over $20k at present.

Reading comprehension fail on my part. Right now I am in Dave's category, but I've been getting unemployment payments the past month.
