Four years ago I was making almost twice as much money as I am now.
Corporate merger, downsizing, recession effects on broadcasting (and everything else) and maybe throw in a little age discrimination in the mix.
The good news is that with all the kids out of the house, we don't need nearly as much and are doing OK.
(Thank goodness for National Merit and additional scholarships which pay nearly 100% of our son's college costs, though)
