$70k is only the average salary of a UPS driver.According to a 2011 WSJ report/calculator if your household income is 70k, you are bringing in more then 67% of the country.
Even if your SO only makes 10.00 an hour and you make 70k at ups, your household income would be better then 76% of the households.
What Percent Are You? - Real Time Economics - WSJ
Factor in the $30k in retirement funding and healthcare premiums paid by UPS and a drivers package is more than 81% of the nation.
Another factor to throw into the equation is logistics.
The bean counters have raised my pay grade to $90k, to save money on the books by paying me overtime.
Now I make more than 84% than all Americans.
Mind friggin' boggling.
