for me who live outside USA, think that $10,000 is a huge amount of money to have. it's hard for me to make it. for you, whether you're living in USA or not, do you think that $10,000 is a really big number?

I think that that is a nice amount of money and would buy my husband and I a car if we had it! It's a nice amount to live on for awhile or to save back for several vacations, or saving for retirement etc.

If we ever had that much at one time we would use it wisely! We don't need it to buy a car now though we could use it to help pay on the truck lol, if that makes sense!

I would love to have 10,000 dollars for me to be able to live on with out it being taxed that would be really awesome because I could rent out a cheap apartment and not have to work to much just a enough to pay for bills and food. I would also use my time wisely either making money or helping the community. Also fit some social time in there as well. Just so that I can not go completely insane :).

Oh and 10,000 isn't a lot of money it won't buy you a new car or anything. But you could survive for a little bit on it if you where really tight on how you spent the money.

yes your right, in my country its already a huge money and i can buy a lot of gadget with it and even more than enough for my birthing cost though i know in other country or US some of them even those who work as an ordinary employee can earn that big but in here i guess managers or other higher officers will do.

It depends on how you look at it. $10,000 clear money, meaning no taxes due no bill to be paid from it is an huge amount of money. If all those things have to be taken out of it, I still take it with great pleasure. It just would not be nearly as much fun. LOL. Either way any extra money is always a joy and is nice to have. On the other hand if that was my yearly income I would be scared. I would not be able to live on that very long. So in that instance it would not be very much money at all. Only enough to cove about 6 months of living expenses with no extras.

To be honest, $10,000 isn't a huge sum. For me, the average monthly household expenditure is easily within the range of $3,000 to $4,000. $10,000 may be able to last us for 3 months or so.

it takes many months before i reached that money as my salary is not even that much. but in other country they can but cost of living there is expensive also thats why they can earned that much money. in my country i can say that its not very costly to live her but salary is also not big.
