“Special Nurse:” $350,000+
Municipal railway manager: $325,000+
“Administrative services” department head: $280,000+

And no, the figures do not include pensions and benefits.
And they want you to bail them out?

Please PM me for my paypal addy so I can start the collection fund, we could all give as a sympathetic PSD group.

I was just going to mention this. Your answer is in bold.

Oh and before anyone comes back with you need to make that much to buy a house. The only reason housing is that high is because your assessor's are friggin retarded

^^ which probably plays into allowing folks to live off home valuation instead of what they actually make.

Here is a great example of that. A friend of my mothers sold her 3 million dollar home in california 2 years ago. Moved to MN bought a similar property here for $150k and has been living off the equity and interest ever since. The property wasn't anything special either. Just a 3bedroom ranch style with a large garage on an acre
