Come on --

I don 't believe that you even have to ask that question as that averages out to $40 an hour and if that isn't good money -- what is?  I know it is possible as I make that plus some at times.  And the way you presented it was a quiet "boasting" and to me was baiting someone to come back at your question and with some of the people on this board, I am surprised you didn't get some stating that they question that amount   But I simply cannot understand why you asked this as in this day and age $40 to me is good pay and I would not question it.
