Got my first paycheck from the new job today...

We may earn a small commission from affiliate links and paid advertisements. Terms

yeah, but that is 6% going into a 401k. not too shabby for us ex military guys.
 
the loan is also going into the 401K....so something like...uhmmm... $480 every two weeks, and the company matches each week for $120 @ %50...so $600 every two weeks into the 401K. So 16% from the gross is going into savings.

;)

wow, i'm actually saving like $16000 a year....retirements going to be fun....hehe

Looking at my paycheck today...

Salary this period - 2346.91
commission - 974.16 ( once a month )
Take home this week - 2219.02 ( shitty )

I did buy a new car this week, I purchased a fully loaded All Wheel Drive Ford Fusion. I got the 07 with a sticker of 29000 for slightly under 24... screw that jeep.
 
Good, change your sig !

$24 for a Fusion ? Shit a comparable Mustang is cheaper. Of course not in AWD.
 
I'll pm you my addy, you can send me some of that extra cabbage if you'd like.

:)

nah i am every two weeks. I am only help desk, but working for comcast i get commission. I basically help with all of the eastern division of comcast, with every computer problem they have. So if i fix issues faster than i am quoted i get commision. And i bust ass most days, so i get a bigger commision check. I do work 50 hours a week though. 7:30-5:30 saturday - wednesday. If i work any OT my base wage gets 2.50 added to it, then time and a half. So basically after 40 hours, I get paid alot more :) No OT, and i bring home about 3700 a month.

Edit - yea i traded it in, I got 9500 for it, and I owed 12. So i argued and even walked out on them 2 days ago. I told them i wanted a new car from them, but i wasnt taking that big of a hit. So they wiped out 2k of the negative equity and i took a 500 dollar loss. So now i have an AWD Fusion, fully loaded with navigation.

well my disability is from Serving my Country in the U.S ARMY and im still alive after 2 tours in the desert 1 in Iraq ....lol PLus i can do almost everything you can :) . thats the price WE pay for the freedom we provide ..... :)
 
Wow 23 posts, shows your douchebag response. Regardless of you being in the service or not, dont gloat about a disability check.
It defiantly feels good to earn good money. I am saving right now for a house. I am still at my apartment, but i am banking about 1000 a month. So i will have a good down payment in 2 years or so. Hopefully around 20k.

yes it does feel good to earn good money i did for 20 yrs in the Army and like every war people get hurt and this is my reward i guess for putting my life on the line. when you finally put your time in and retire youll see how much you appreciate your retirement check.:D
