Hello,

You don't seem to understand the problem. You can't make statements like that if you have no currency for your values.  645,30 what? Australian dollars, yen, US dollars? How can you say something is minimum wage when you don't know how much it is?  I could  have trillions of dollars in Zimbabwe money, and would fit into your last poll option. That would not indicate I'm rich, but you seem to think it does.

Ah yes, you are completely correct :) I stand corrected and apoligize. I automatically thought that most of use either have are salary in dollars or euros (I put the othres options just in case) But yes there are people that make 100000 yens a month

No offence, but I don't think it's a good idea to fragment the data into such small increments especially when the sample itself is small.

 

I'd also like to add that asking about monthly salary presumes that the people being interviewed are employed. Some of us are self-employed or have mixed sources of income. What I'm saying is that monthly salary =! net income.

 

Completely agree about the increments being too fragmented.  Means I have to do quite a bit of my own side math to figure out what the data means because the actual plot that is generated doesn't have much of a meaning with this sample size.

 I make a penny or two a day walking around picking pennies off the ground, still not enough to buy a car wash let alone buy a second hand Subaru. Maybe I should start taking some chemistry classes and make some good money using that knowledge  :laugh:

Hello,

Rather than ask how much money people make, why not make a thread asking people what they do for a living ;)

I actually was going to do that but the problem is that I havent had a good section to find listing of working catagories. I dont want to forget or offend anyone.

Hello,

 

Out of curiosity, how are you handling the different currency conversions?  If I choose, say, 9,500, and then select EUR, does it get re-factored for USD?  It seems to me it might be better to re-do this poll with a single currency unit, and ask people to use a currency conversion calculator to enter their monthly salary.

No, it simply means you get a salary of 9500? a month. Another person can pick $9500 and pick US dollars. Thats it, there is no more to it.

I dont convert it or anything.

This isnt for a study or my records or nothing.

but you still have no way of telling which amount tied to dollars, or euros... so the whole thing is still flawed

I voted, but this Poll is useless. The only semi-useful conclusion you can draw from this data is that the majority of people in this Poll are using U.S. Dollars.

 

A Better poll would be to ask how much people make in a single currency as was previously suggested.

?1,200 - ?1,400 a month. 

 

And that's with two jobs. I'm a senior legal secretary/supervisor but also do the cleaning for my office. Desperately saving up for a mortgage deposit hence the second job. 

 

Finally, I'm training to become a police station representative. Once I'm qualified I'll be on significantly more, as overtime pay ('out of hours') is excellent :D 

 

Not sure why everyone is so touchy over this. Answer the question or GTFO.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I must admit, this is probably the only game at the moment where I can see that $80 price point being ok. The issue will be when other developers think they can get away with it with half of the work.
    • Google Wallet expands TSA PreCheck Touchless ID access to more travellers

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Google Wallet expands TSA PreCheck Touchless ID access to more travellers by Fiza Ali Google has announced that Google Wallet is becoming the first digital wallet to integrate with TSA PreCheck Touchless ID. It is a programme that lets eligible travellers move through participating airport security checkpoints using facial recognition instead of showing a physical ID or boarding pass. While the TSA PreCheck Touchless ID programme has been available for some time, using it hasn't always been straightforward. The programme currently operates at 65 airports across the US, but participation has largely depended on flying with a limited number of airlines. Travellers also had to upload passport information separately through participating carriers. Now, the tech giant's new integration is designed to remove some of those extra steps. With the update rolling out in the coming weeks, travellers with TSA PreCheck membership will be able to enrol in Touchless ID through Google Wallet and use the service with any of the 100 airlines participating in the programme. Rather than repeatedly submitting identification details, users can store a digital ID in Google Wallet and use it to streamline future trips. Setting up the feature is relatively straightforward as well. The process starts with users creating a digital ID in Google Wallet using their passport information. After checking in for a flight and saving a boarding pass to the app, eligible travellers will see a "Get started" option that directs them to the TSA enrolment process. Once users choose to share their ID pass and boarding pass information with the TSA for a specific trip, the agency will verify the enrolment. If approved, a TSA PreCheck Touchless ID indicator will appear on the boarding pass stored in Google Wallet, signalling that the traveller can use designated express Touchless ID lanes at participating airports. As privacy and security are likely to be key considerations for many travellers, Google says users must explicitly opt in before any information is shared with the TSA, and authentication is required through a device PIN, pattern, or biometric verification. The company also notes that digital IDs stored in Google Wallet remain encrypted and are kept on the user's device. For frequent flyers who already use TSA PreCheck, the new integration could remove a few more steps from the airport security process, making travel slightly faster and a little less cumbersome.

      Even though MS had to sunset the Windows Subsystem for Android, you can apparently use BlueStacks to run Android in Windows now. I haven't tested this yet, so if anyone has any feedback, I'd love to hear it.
