GetBiggers: Disclose your salaries

[leonp1981]

That's pounds, not dollars.  It is more like $17k.

It was a few months ago, unfortunately it's now just over $11k. 

[slacker]

i make 400.000

[cheftim]

Approx $30,000 a year.

Not rich, not poor - but it pays the bills.

30K? I spend that much a year on toilet paper. How do you survive? Do you eat cat food?

Whats happening with your TV show Tim? 

[body88]

Boston > NYC

Less blown out degos and yankee fans

Agreed.  Cleaner to.  Chicago is a happy medium.

[body88]

My neighbor labels himself as a "glorified welder" but he turned that into a $300mil per year business.

Is James cool?  How do you live in his area?  I know you do well, but as you said, he pulls in 300 mill per year.

[Eyeball Chambers]

300mil is pocket change to Coach.

In the process as we speak. Did a lot of work on the lighting today. Been busy with my Thailand trip and work events. Have to drop 15# at least. Look like a fat boy on TV. My web designer just got back from Russia so we're gonna sort that out as well. A lot of work and politics. They're such dicks at the foodnetwork you have no idea. Jews.

No comparison there.

[body88]

No comparison there.

Yes there is.  New York is a dump for the most part and it's very dirty.  Both cities offer a different vibe. NYC has extreme wealth or extreme poverty and much higher crime rate.  There is a lot of money in Boston, and it's spread out more evenly.  Sure, some of the richest people in the world live in NYC, but that population is small compared to the massive poor population of the city.  NYC has the Hampton's....Boston has the Cape and the islands.  I lived in NYC for a year and I didn't like it.  I prefer Boston and Chicago.  Also Boston is very close to great skiing and I love to ski and snowboard.  Can't be the hundreds of miles on NE beaches also.

Being a Chef I can see why you would like NYC more.  The foodie scene is x10 times better than Boston's.

When the last time you visited Boston and where did you go?

Cool.  I prefer Boston to NYC after living in both cities.  Trust me, what you see on TV is not what is reality is in NYC.  But hey, different strokes for different folks!

NYC is just dirty because the population is so high. Boston has the Cape? The highest Gay community in America. I lived on Nantucket for two summers. The waves suck and they don't even have good drugs there. Marthas vineyard is a toilet bowl. Long Island , the five bureaus, Upstate NY (Canada), are nothing at all like Manhattan. Can't put them in the same sentence. Bite your tongue. The north end of Boston is a joke as is Southy. Bunch of Fags.

where in nyc did you live?

while i agree that what's seen on TV is vastly different than reality, i don't understand why you didn't fall in love with the city.

were you in the outer boroughs?  queens, bronx -- flatbush, maybe?  then i could understand.  if you lived anywhere in manhattan (harlem and spanish harlem included), or in the closer BK areas (the slope, williamsburg, greenpoint), you shoulda had a good time.

nyc is vastly superior to boston.

[bcimagala]

What did you do go to toys r us in Timesquare? Dude you have no idea. Contact me next time before you come. We'll train legs, we'll drink Guiness and i'll show you around.

amen.

he might not have ventured south of 23rd street.

Quoted for blackmail.

Gain 40lbs and tell 'em Paul Prudhomme sent you.  What's the celeb chef plan then?  Did I miss the thread?

Translation: I just busted my little sister's piggy bank and am off to McDs to spend the $3 on the McValue meal

  Translation:

  "I am jealous because I have no way to know whether he's telling the truth or not and the possibility that it's true drives me crazy, so I am going to make a snide remark about his statement trying to embarass and humiliate him out of spite"

Lot of poor people on getbig.....

[nzmusclemonster]

My salary has plummetted thanks to the god dam economy. I was doing contracts for large companies ranging from $7,000 to $10,000 a month. With businesses tightening up now, no one wants to use me for shit, so I had to get a crappy blue collar job not even paying half that

What was your profession?

$10k a month is pretty good...
