These days, it seems no one is satisfied with the amount of zeros at the end of his or her paycheck. According to a new CareerBuilder.com survey, 83 percent of employees are living paycheck to paycheck to make ends meet.
Twenty-three percent of respondents said they would need to earn an extra $251 to $500 more per paycheck to live comfortably, while 12 percent said they need to earn $501 to $750. Twenty percent of workers say they would need to earn more than an additional $1,000 more per check to live comfortably.
With the current national median salary at $40,690, these statistics are as surprising as they are expected.
