why someone doesn't believe others can make over $100,000/yr?  
had he ever read the following news.
" TTC TICKET COLLECTOR rakes in $100Gs last year "
http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2008/04/02/5174216-sun.html

i believe those people who are in the medical field can easily make $100,000.  remember people get 1.5x - 3x pay when they work overtime. and the salary on your t4 included some of your paid benefits as well.

if you don't satisfy with you low-paid job, you should spend more time to upgrade yourself in-order to get a better job.  rather than questioning the others.
or if you are too stupid to upgrade yourself, just work harder la.

TTC ticket collector rakes in $100Gs last year.

he was not lucky, he asked for the overtime.  he doesn't look like someone who just keep complaining, but do nothing.

as i mentioned before, there is nothing wrong of being a stupid person, but you should either work hard to earn more, or shut-up and believe someone is smarter than you and make more than you.

BTW, his case was not typical, there was almost 400 people made over $100.000 at TTC.

Pls don't ask me "where is the source" again. I included the link on my original post, you don't know how to click on it?!? if you don't how to click on the link, pls google it.  

if you read the news, it mentioned that he asks for the overtime.  

"Don't you think other people want to do this lucrataive overtime, too?  Other people are stupid and don't about overtime?"

people don't want to work for overtime because they have more important thing to do.  money maybe the top issue for you, but not for everyone.  most people want to spend more time with their family, hobby or....

btw, everyone has his/her own thought.  it may be same as yours, maybe not.  but it doesn't mean s/he is stupid anyway.

"I see many TTC employees are on that list clearly because of the overtime"

this is what i try to tell you.  some people are smart and get a high paid job.  some people work hard to get more income.

so please do more research before you called others as liars or losers.  as i reasonable person, it is not that hard to earn $100,000, just depends on do you want to.  so many people are doing two/three jobs at the same time.

"How many TTC employees are there?
Answer: About 11,235 employees

How many earn more than $100,000?
Answer: 388"

what is your point?

are  you try to say only a small portion earning over $100,000?

remember, it doesn't mean the rest of the group are earning low income.  they may earn $99999 wow.  i don't have the figure on hand, if you like you can search it out.  also most of their employees are drivers and ticket collectors, not a high paid job.  they got most of their salary by working overtime.

my message is "if someone works hard, s/he can earn $100000/yr as well.  so don't call anyone loser or liar just because s/he declare her/his earning is $100,000+.

I don't surprise you have a low-paid job, but trust others earn that much la.

    ha... so funny... let's see what's happening outside the world of LYKs... according to statistics Canada, the average household income for 2006 is "$67,600".. this is the # of 2 or more ppl in a family (household),
    for individual the income is $28,500
    (those $$ is after tax)

    so u think making more than $10k / month is easy??? rethink about it.... a frd or 2 who make this salary doesn't mean anything... u may know more than 100+ ppl...

That's why I called these people LIARS here."""

ar.....i think we need to clarify an important issue, are we talking before tax or after tax salary?

I thought we are talking the before tax salary wow.
when did we switch to after tax salary ar.  they are 20% - 45% difference la.  

actually the result fr lyk is similar to the statistics Canada.  ave income from lyk is approx. $50000 before tax, which is approx. $35000 after tax.  
$35000 in 2009 compare $28500 in 2006, acceptable wow.

so before you called someone liar, pls read the statement carefully and think twice.

"""Well, you can have your opinion.  I can have my opinion.  Nothing wrong with that."""

yes, everyone can has his/her own opinion, nothing wrong with it.
it became a problem when you called people liar & loser.  unless you can prove someone is lying, otherwise you have no right to call s/he as liar.  you are humiliating others.  shame on you

tofu

"""It is my opinion that they are liars.  You don't have to agree with me.

Can you prove they didn't lie?"""

why i need to prove they are not lying.  remember in canada, you need to prove a person is guilty before you can put a charge on his/her.

also, you said everyone is lying here.  at least i can tell you i am not.  why i need to lie, you don't even know who i am & what i choose.

maybe you need to lie everything about yourself.  but don't assume others are the same.  most people are happy of who they are.
