So that Wikipedia page says the mean is $72,641/year for a household. I guess that's closer to two people each earning $44k?

Not necessarily. Household can have any number of adults, but 2 is the most common.

 

[MirrorMan]

Yeah, I read further in the Wikipedia page and found the mean number. I jumped the gun and copied the median number first.

Well, i hope you have learned your lesson!

Yes. I know. I was just saying that two adults earning about $44k (the number Peachy mentioned) is approximately going to be about $72k (the average income for a household according to Wikipedia).

Who knows where the requ got their number. I do know that my Social Security is way below the poverty line. In my mind, there are only 2 levels of income: enough and not enough

I see you noticed that I included "about" and "approximately" repeatedly.

 

[JenniLeigh]

She said approximately.

how does 2 x 44=72?

It doesn't....

Thus why I said "about" and "approximately" in an attempt to possibly sort of closely almost reconcile the average estimated numbers from Peachy's quote and the Wikipedia page.

But I think I'm done with this conversation now.
