100k a year in 202X isn't decent

u/NemrahG Jun 03 '26

$100k a year is a lot more than what most people make in Canada

Believe it or not, but after tax, I make more as a disabled veteran ... 👀

What's the net income per month, after tax and deductions in Ontario, for $100k a year??

If this job pays 100k net income , well shit, I'm applying right now lol

I’m just saying most people would take the job just because of the pay, there’s probably a ton of sweet benefits too since it’s government and union job and you get to handle cool guns all day

Handling cool guns all day would be pretty damn sweet, not gonna lie

Unfortunately you are right.

Not great anymore, but still higher than most. Median in 2024 was under $70k.

Average salary of canuckistan is around 68k. Thats okay.

100k though, is pretty good. If I had that kinda moolah, I'd be investing as much as possible to make up for my younger mistakes.

100k net income or 100k before tax?

2

u/Acceptable_Visit_115 Jun 03 '26

Sadly, it's still 30k higher than the national average.

Let that sink in.

Yeah that’s not decent at all, I make over that and I’m a fucking idiot….

I'd like to make anywhere remotely close to 100k.

It seems like STEM degrees are worth less than the paper they are printed on these days.

u/PteSoupSandwich The 10/22 Dude Jun 03 '26

I make $6343/month, net income, and every year my wages are increased/indexed according to the the Consumer Price Index. No STEM degree

u/Acceptable_Visit_115 Jun 03 '26

Isn't that nice?

I now fly a desk and push pencils and make 4k/mo net by doing something completely unrelated to my degree. Last time I worked in a related field I made 2500/mo net if not less, with no pay increase.

I joined the CF and ended up a disabled veteran lol

u/Acceptable_Visit_115 Jun 03 '26

That's certainly one way to do it.

Thank you for your service!
