How much do you get paid an hour & how many hours do you work a week ?

I read in my other thread " months of hard labor " to get your first car. For me, it takes me a year to make only $4800 and that's WITHOUT my excessive spending on clothes & such. Then again, I'm only 16.

I use one of these Metal Detectors and search through parks and fields of Northern California. So my income is not consistent. Im my own boss and work when i want

[sleepy Tiger]

Oh damn... that means you get no tax deductions and whatnot.

I work 40 hr/week at $7/hr. About 800-900 a month.

I have to applaud the people who have bought their own cars working pt/ft where the hourly rate was less then $10.

What do you guys do for rent?

Oh yeah, substitute taxes in & I make less than $4800.

Is this 4800 per year? Or month?

At this rate, I guess I'll just learn how to drive stick and convince my uncle to give me his honda civic.

You have it easy if you live at home and get fed by your parents. If not you gotta work a whole lot to get a good down payment and pay monthly along with insurance/gas.

[srenity]

$10.75-11/hr, 36ish hours a week (not including voluntary overtime) and taxes suck majorly.

a lot of it goes to my car, insurance, gas (cringe), and other bills. about 13% of the earnings goes to my hobby(ies) and neccessities 5% for things i want [per month]
only a bed and room to sleep in is provided by my parent's ^^;;

i personally think it's easier to pay off your own car when you get it at 18+ lots of places pay you more if you were 18+ compared to if you're younger

i'm on and off with work during school since i'm doing construction and my jobs come and go, but during the summer i'm bustin' my ass doin' construction and coachin' tennis at least 12 hours a day. gettin' anywhere from $15-20/hr. financial aid money helps a lot too.

[Second_Ingredient]

I worked at a car shop for about 3 years during high school. I got paid 8.50 an hour. I also worked at the marriott parking cars. I made minimum wage including tips.

[brown eyes]

worked part time for about 6 months..

Did nothing but eat cup o noodles and stayed home on the weekends.

saved every single paycheck and bought a used car for 5,500

I'm thinking about selling my car and buying a SUV. But with the way gas prices are and my part time employment is concerned, I don't think I can afford to drive.

[Jay-C]

I get $18 an hour on weekdays which i harldy work on, during saturdays, i get 15% more and Sundays, 50% more. I average...around 400 a week. But then again, i go to uni Mon-fri anyway >.<
