you really expect us to think that over 75% of you who responded make more than canada's national average?
I don't doubt that there are some on this forum that do, but really?
I guess whatever makes you feel better about yourself... Hopefully high school grads aren't reading this thread and basing their expected salary off what has been said on this thread or the other

I believe it. A lot of people who post and are likely to respond to this survey are professionals who have Flames season tickets or discretionary income to spend on hockey, and time during the day to post on Calgarypuck. Couple that with the fact that Calgary has the highest average wages of any major Canadian city and I don't think it's a stretch.
A couple people I know at the company I work for are making six figures before age 25. I wouldn't doubt the average age here is much higher than that and most people probably work in the same industry (oil & gas).
