    Jeff, 30 to 50 bucks an hour is for seasoned, well qualified professionals. Regular folks earn anywhere from 7-15 dollars an hr. Always fact check!

    Jeff caring for the elderly it's 10 to 14 dollars an hour for starting. Let me start on the expenses health insurance, rent, electricity, wifi - Internet, car loans, gas or rather fuel, food, car insurance but we try our best and survive but if you have a degree let's say in nursing you paid good money.

    Whoa! Didn't know we're that many. It's good to see people coming out to defend their positions. Jeff's figures are way off...at least for many immigrants...the average is 15, give or take, while the "feel good" bracket begins in the mid 20s and up.

    Some of us make that $50 but believe me, we are living the life we always dreamt of. I did survive on $8 an hr before n was comfortable working 60 hrs a week. Had more fun during this period but lived paycheck to paycheck. Making $15-25 an hr is enough to provide a decent life in a place with low cost of living. That being said, $15 in the midwest is equal to $30+ in California. Cost of living etc.

    • @mpendamuziki
      @mpendamuziki 6 лет назад

      Lactomatic254 I was about to say the same thing. Depends on where you are. States like California, NYC etc people make those 30 40 50 an hour.. but rent is high.. but either way, life here financially is far much better than in Kenya. at least you can support people back home. and by the way the biggest expense to many in US are the people back home.

    Jeff was giving you an example. Those who get paid $30 and up per hour are professional and also it depends with the states. The more you get paid, the more you spend because you will end up living in a high end neighborhood. NY rent is about $3000 per 2 bedroom or more depending of the neighborhood. Na kweli madeni ni mengi. Your paystub, may report so much money, and yet your incoming check after the taxes are out, is so little. Lol. Those who saves or invest the little they remain with are better off than those who spend it all.
