If the household median income is $90K, in many cases that's two people.

Nine years ago when I learned about this board I was the above uni student. My friends who turned me on to the site were the above uni students as well, now 9yrs later and a bunch of us continue to read the board (10+) without posting much (more responsibility) and I'd be shocked to find out if any of those buddies didn't earn $100k+.
Calgarypuck is an amazing community with a lot of people with very educated opinions in a variety of areas (Business, sports, investing) and that's what I love about it. Don't fall into the trap and think we're all know-nothing students without life experience.
Just think what this board will be like in another 10yrs.
