-Jeff Most porn stars wouldn't get the hotties they do if they weren't porn stars.. I think they do this to make the rest of us feel better.. If all porn stars were tom cruises, it wouldn't be the same would it? |

Well then you don't know middle europe.
In Hungary a well paid IT engineer with 2 years of experience makes about 2.5$ an hour. And it's one of the best jobs. :cry: :cry:

My father works as an SAP consultant and he earns 8 times more. It's however true that salaries in middle europe (former socialist block countries) are not so high. May I say f***ing low? But anyway we're progressing, slowly though towards something better. In little more than two years time we'll be part the of EU. And that's where all begins to make sense, although being a member of the EU does not mean instaneaus living standard increase. Now as for myself: Job: Student Salary: pocketmoney Education: still learning Age: 18 Experience: 6 years, or rather: 6 years of messing with VB |
