Is $750 dollars basic take home pay decent money?


Recommended Posts

His wife is going to be earning 600 dollars as well, can't people add up, they will be on 1650 per week.

I can add up,but did round down. The wage looks like $150 a day for 5 days a week and double pay for Saturday. That's a total of $1050 for a six day week. That is very bad money for working very hard. OK, his wife hopes to get $600 a week from part time teaching and that would take it up to $1650 a week - but that looks like a lot of work and very little play - which is probably a good thing as there would be very little money left over to play with. IMO.

Hi PP,

 

 

Just wondering really as someone who would know, what is a reasonable wage in your opinion, i know we all have different circumstances but generally what do you think would be a reasonably healthy wage for 2 adults and 3 kids?

redacted personal details - those who asked the question have had the opportunity to read my answer but I don't want it preserved on public view for ever

You both incorrectly mis-read my original post, where i said 'figures', you both added them up differently and wrongly, its no big deal. Lets move on.

 

Clearly no one thinks, or is saying that $750 per week for a family of five, is enough to live comfortably on.
