I see no poll

Edit: Now I do!

Fluorescence · 26-07-2011 7:48pm

I'd say anything above €40k is pretty decent, and anything over about €85k is fairly big money.

py2006 · 26-07-2011 7:50pm

If your talking yearly salary, €30,000 in the current climate is fairly decent!

Mint Sauce · 26-07-2011 7:51pm

Just any regular wage at the moment would be good.

Eve_Dublin · 26-07-2011 7:54pm

My salary is woefully low. I think I might've been earning more working full time during the Summer as a student when I was 21-24 then what I earn now, so I'm impressed by anything that's more than a schilling and a scrap of stale bread.

Vicxas · 26-07-2011 7:54pm

450-500 is nice enough..... for now

alwaysadub · 26-07-2011 7:56pm

It depends on what type of work it is.

admiralofthefleet · 26-07-2011 7:56pm

what do you think op?

me, about 700

Crazy Horse 6 · 26-07-2011 8:04pm

400 a week

krudler · 26-07-2011 8:07pm

Depends on the work tbh, some people make very little for hard, sh1t jobs and others rake it in for stuff like "advisory" and "consultant" roles where nobody, including themselves, is really sure as to what they actually do.

sundodger5 · 26-07-2011 8:07pm

a euro a week more than i can spend would be ok. if i wanted to be really well off a euro more than the wife could spend.

Tigger · 26-07-2011 8:09pm

before or after tax etc?

tallaghtmick · 26-07-2011 8:09pm

550 would be ok with me I only earn 450 now down from 750 so I know the difference.

Princess Peach · 26-07-2011 8:11pm

Anything above what I earn

And probably even above what I earned before my pay cut.

tuxy · 26-07-2011 8:11pm

Why would anyone need more than unemployment benefit?

Whatever it takes to keep up the payments on the Pink Panther car.

Solnskaya · 26-07-2011 8:26pm

I must've read the poll wrong OP, obviously those figures are per day? You did say a good wage, didn't you?

jimthemental · 26-07-2011 8:31pm

I was on 20k, emigrating next week. tbh anything more than 25k with no dependents is good.

Mike 1972 · 26-07-2011 8:34pm

Surely it depends on the job in question ?

Storminateacup · 26-07-2011 8:34pm

125 euro for 45 minutes work.

375 for less than 3 hours work.

Not to be sneezed at

Teyla Emmagan · 26-07-2011 8:37pm

One million euro.

Cause I'm worth it (and possibly delusional).

Agricola · 26-07-2011 8:39pm

Considering the high tax on high earners, Id say you'd want to be earning 100k. That way you'd be taking home enough to have a comfortable life.
