Is anyone in Florida making the big bucks?

[ratpatrol]

With florida being the 'right to work' state.. Is anyone really making good money?
Of course, lots of years equal more money but what about those starting out?
What kind of take home pay is the norm??

Wow, we make tons of money in Florida. In May I took home a lot of money. Then I had to pay for: mortgage, property insurance, flood insurance, property taxes, food, electricity, water, kids school, daycare, car, gas, oil change, new tires, lawn, car wash, clothes, shoes, cell phone (mine & my wife's), credit cards, pool supplies, prepaid legal, deffered comp, life insurance,etc. Then after I'm done with all that.....................................It's June

we have deputy's in the jail, most are topped out who hit
100,000 quite a few times and more, just as many as they hire,
quit, retire, get fired etc

Nope not me.....base salary at my ept. is $26,890 a year..I took a pay cut from previous job of 35k a year to go there, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. Plus my finance is about finished on her RN certification, and will be my sugar momma!
