If you really just want to get an idea of the economic spread of the forum members, just set up a poll.

I agree, set up a poll dude. This is a TMI issue, I never reveal that, just a ballpark figure.

ungentlemanly to talk about salary. You also never know if a coworker also browses these forums.

I know from history on this and other forums that these threads go down like someone taking a hammer to a brand new Mercedes-Benz.

Nevertheless, I don't really understand why.

I would also love to know the demographics of W204s buyers to see, if I am average, or poorer (haha) than the average owner. It's just interesting to see, and it gives you an idea of what the dealerships might think of us, if we're a particularly low income W204 buyer, or not.

So I understand everyone's hesitation, but I say don't give the thread starter too hard of a time. It is an interesting question IMHO.

OP, can you edit your initial message? Maybe turn this into a poll?

Maybe use a half-log scale:

Income ranges:
0-10,000
10,001-50,000
50,001-100,000
100,001-500,000
500,001-1,000,000
and, of course: 1,000,001+
?

By the way if you were unionised no one would worry about co workers knowing your salary! Am I the only pro union MB owner ?!!

Sure do, I own the fields that you get your supply from that you give to the suppliers. LOL.

Seriously though, create a poll dude. It would be pretty interesting, and make it general and not just to C Class owners.

thanks man... people just get too fussy when u ask em what they make... too me, it is purely educational to know and i have no problem with it...

knowing what people make around you in the workplace and in life can be very helpful knowledge in advancing yourself...
