what are your main sources of income?

[Real_PhillBert]

I have my 9-5 engineering job, then a rental property that brings in some money as well. 

 

When I was in college I got an internship pretty early on, so that might be a pretty good option for you too.

Probably a weird question in America, but how much do you make - my dad's a truck driver too makes only about 500 EUR per trip. EU - RUSSIA

I drive trucks also. From that job I make around 125k USD a year. Also own a few side businesses and rent houses I own. 

 

But I always wanted to be a prostitute. Though I would have to pay a woman to sleep with me.....and my wife wouldn't be happy about it. So...I can't do it. 

[Misanthrope]

Master Data Management analyst for a logistics company, which is a fancy way of saying "I know how to program excel and access macros really well and decent at PL/SQL queries"

Not sure which way sounds less boring.

$125k USD a year?! What the fuck job you are doing. I would drop out of college to start working $125k/year.

I'm a truck driver with 20 years experience. 2 million accident free miles and a trainer. It's a lonely life as I spend more time in my truck than at home with my wife and kids.

$125k per year is like a fucking master degree salary in engineering. My god, I can't imagine getting myself a Nissan GTR(One of my dream cars) with this job.  I don't really care if the job boring man, but dam that $125k per year is worth it. Heck, you can be richer if you start investing and stock trading.

It's not as much money as you think. Especially in South Florida where cost of living is quite high. Plus you add in the cost of kids, medical insurance, life insurance and all that stuff....and it becomes much smaller. But I live comfortably. 

 

As for the GTR....it's an alright car. I've owned 2 now.  An R32 and an R35. I liked the R32 more but I still didn't care for it. I prefer my 63 VW Beetle and my wife's Lotus Elise more.

$125k is a lot for a single person. I am not ready to have a family yet because I aint going to deal family problem, cheating, and divorce.

 

I agree with you the R32 GTR looks so much better than the R35 GTR, but I will be dead if I have my hands on the R35 GTR..........

 

Corvette and Camaro are another my favorite cars in a cheap price. 

[DimasRMDO]

Being a mechanic and race car driver are my sources of income.

IT is my side job, I install and maintain ICT equipment at my parents' workplace.

[AlTech]

Parents for now.

 

As a secondary source of income,  for a few months during last year I was working as a peer tutor (basically helping with homework etc) a few hours a week. It paid decently (for what I was asked to do) and felt good to do.

 

I don't do it anymore though.

[Princess Luna]

I'm an export manager

I have a job/career that's mostly just me having fun and trying to break things all day, then documenting things when I do break it. I enjoy what I do and I always try to get better. It's not all perfect or anything but I'm happy and it pays well

Realized I should expand on this a bit more.

Technically my title is "Consulting Services Engineer". The titles used to be Network Consulting Engineer at one point and it changes from time to time. None of those titles really describe what I do though. I'm part of a group that basically, as I mention in the quoted text, is tasked with documenting and trying to break and validate network solutions for customers. We do everything from simple code validation, product validation, interop testing, scale testing, and all the way up to end-to-end solution testing based on exact customer network replicas. It basically depends on what the customer is paying for but mainly we target end-to-end solution and interop/scale testing for companies who either don't want to/cannot afford to have their own dedicated lab, or companies that have their own in-house validation teams but don't have the resources to deal with everything being sent their way or lack expertise in a new solution.

[BarackOBatman]

I work a 9-5 desk job in an office for an Electronics Manufacturing Company.

I flip PCs on the side as a hobby, but its mostly break even.

Effectively what I did as I kid working at a club lifeguarding, was contracted for 6 or something like that.

Never (touch wood) had to save anyone, I still do casual work there as and when. Also the first aid is useful, especially on a night out and someone can't handle their drink and is passed out on curb drowning in vom. Always a fun one to deal with.
