That enables you to afford the jeans
I am a guitar and piano instructor and I teach music to grades 3, 4, 5. I do better financially with my home based music businesss than teaching at the school.
Just curious.

I own a resale clothing store, although our bastard landlords are pretty much pricing us out of the building by raising the rent by $1500. So in November, I'll be going back to full-time latte slinging at an espresso drive-thru, where I work 3 mornings a week right now.

I'm a stay-at-home mom...(hardest job I've ever had...but that's a different thread!...) Worked up until I was 34, when my 2nd baby was born. Hubby is an account exec for an insurance brokerage/financial services firm...thank god! Otherwise I'd be working again, just to be able to pay for daycare...it's a vicious freakin cycle. I try to be cautious about what I spend on jeans...only have one pair that I paid retail for!

I'm a psych major and a manager in training for Ritz/Wolf Camera...this doesn't help much with the denim addiction, so I limit myself to slapping a pair on a credit card every now and then while slowly paying it back. Thankfully, I've had the restraint to not max out my $5500 credit limit...YET! (LOL)

I'm a student, but I'm taking a little break from school right now. I work in an office as an admin. asst. Super easy job with great pay. I also work retail on the weekends and occassionally I babysit. I'll probably be going back to school soon, so I will have to be on a jean limit

Architect at small Midtown Manhattan office. I like to focus on sustainable designs, particularly in residential and small commercial work. I keep my denim collection small and can wear whatever I want to work, so it doesnt affect my financial situation much.

I'm a student

And I guess i find little things here and there to do to make money. I taught skiing for a few months (NOT doing that again) to little kids. Right now I'm in the process of making a webpage for my dad's company.

I really don't know how i afford jeans. All the money i make amounts to barely enough for food, and going out and maybe a pair of underwear every now and then.

I'm editor in chief of my school's newspaper and in the summer I do whatever bullshit job I can find. My boyfriend hasn't worked in 3 years (he does "investing"), the bastard.

Just graduated law school; clerking for a judge for a year and waiting for my bar results. Won't be buying much denim with that public sector salary of mine though!

i work as a "beauty advisor" at walgreens- i get a % of most of the makeup, accessories, etc. that i ring up and on a good day i will make $10 an hour. i cant wait to start a job where i can start pulling in some more $, but that wont be until i finish grad school. i live with my bf and he pays for rent/utilities (although i know he wants me to put my paycheck towards this instead of my jeans habit i also make money reselling my stuff on ebay/forum so i can afford new stuff. my parents pay for tuition but i dont get any money from them for my clothes habit.
