100K
I agree!
I could only wish
I would say if you have to make $100k at something
Yes, there might come a day where you could make that money in MT. However, it's not going to happen overnight and certainly not at 8 cpl.
100K is pretty much out of the question
Assuming you work 40 hours, which is 2112 hours per year, divided into 100K is over $47 per hour.  You would have to type 580+ lines per hour to average this,  which is not likely.     
100K was mentioned in post below
by "Pollster".
Now you know why a lot of chefs make $75,000-100k a year!

It will be interesting to see the final episode tonight. 


Right. You would have to be sicko to make $100K a year on 8 cpl.

Heck, why should we share our $100K ideas?! ROFL
You want big bucks? Do big amounts of work!!!!!!


Can someone please tell me how these folks who are posting making $75-$100K working for services ...

are making this kind of money? I've been in this profession for over 20 years and the MOST that I ever made in a given year was $50K working for a service and that was with loads of off-the-clock overtime.  Where I work now the majority of decent work is being offshored and the American side MT's are left with terrible work to wade through.  A 'good' check for me now would come out to the equivalent of about $10 an hour!


I can see how folks who have their own accounts could make the type of income range above, but working for a service?  What is it that the rest of you now that obviously I'm totally missing???


Oh, I think I earn my keep!
I have worked a full-time plus a part-time job for the last 15 years. I would say I most definitely "earn my keep".

Listen, if you don't want to hear us "whining", stay off the boards, why don't you??
that is if you EARN under a certain amount,
after that you must pay taxes on all. The goverment certainly isn't going to be left out of our money!!

Does anyone else earn extra money.....
I transcribe 200+ pages per month at $5.00 a page for a local hospital and write resumes as well. The resumes pay better and have over 7000 in my repertoire, however, my first love is MT.
I make 7.5 CPL and earn over $4K monthly
Maybe to you that's not a decent wage, or maybe you're not as fast. I don't know. But this IS production-based work. So type more and earn more. I think I clear about 14,000 lines in a 40-hour work week and I bring TAKE HOME about $4K a month. To ME that's good money. Maybe I'm stupid. I know people that earn much more (are much faster than I) at 7.5 CPL. Call me dumb, but I think that's good take home.
Again, don't forget - Guru gets a cut of what you earn

When it comes time, i will match what they earn.

As far as I know you can earn up to a certain amount - you cannot exceed a certain percentage of the
salary you were making when you took your disability. I do not think it is uncommon to work as you could certainly not make it on disability alone.
What kind of retirement tells you how much you can earn?
I will start drawing from a pension plan this April - I have absolutely nothing saying I can or cannot make X amount of dollars a month. How did you get a retirement that tells you what you can make? This sounds strange to me.
Why only young mothers who want to earn extra?
Why this statement? What about us older ones? I just do not get that statement because I would think experience counts a lot in this job.
Does anyone else earn extra money at home doing something along with MT work?
I need some ideas.  Fall is coming and I will have some extra time and getting burned out on MT.
Yes because i will be spending money i don't have and won't earn anything with work decreasing
;
right, taxes are paid in the state where you earn 'em...
since you work at home, you earned your wages in your state and pay them to your state.
It's not a spambot, it is a person who has been posting to earn money, a program
on ForuMatrix where posters could earn money by posting, however, this person has taken the program out of context and not only will not be compensated, but the posts will be removed.  Our apologies for any inconvenience. 
Yeah, I earn 50k a year and I just bought a house for a buck!

Oh and I just got 25% of 28 million from a prince in Zimbabwe!

So, you think it is okay for hard-working MTs to earn 7-8 cpl for their hard work?? nm

Editing is the higher skill. I earn more editing SM
because I'm able to produce more--if the company doesn't adjust the way production's figured down and down again to keep the account from going elsewhere (when that happened to me on EditScript with no explanation of why my income was dropping, I went elsewhere also).
