How much do you want to be earning?

[clueless]

i dont think ill be earning very much with what im into but dream would be about 40k

[Black_Apalachi]

I don't know what I'd hope to be earning. Less than 15k so I don't have to pay my student loan back lol jks. If I'm on my own then about 30k should be more than enough.

50-60k a year sounds fine.

I'll hopefully be telling you what you can and can't do when you're older then. Civ/Structural Engineer for the win! It's the same sort of thing as you, starting salaries aren't bad (£24k for graduate, £30k-ish after final exams), but the main money comes when/if you get a managers position or project leader and the like. =D

enough to give a decent standard of living and as long as im happy with what im doing.

Same really Matt. However, in 20 years I guess I want a family and want to give them a good life and I'd be more than content with 30-40K. Who knows, could be on much much more. Might be on less. Say 30K and if my partner was on 30K too then I'd be sorted.

Well i'm entering the navy at around 18, could enter at 40k if i do a course and enter as a Officer, otherwise will be a specialist and earn about 18k, then whilst IN THE NAVY!! i will be doing a degree so when i leave i think a degree and about 5 years in the navy will get me a job fairly easily. So maybe work myself up wherever i am working and be on about 150k+

Ambitious, yes. But why aim for a 20k job?

I'll be owning my own bakery so I dunno how much i'll be "earning".. maybe 150k+ ?

[MrGazet]

around 100+ k since I'm going to get into tough fields that require special skills,hence the higher wage

I want to get as much money possible so I can just get anything that I want

By that logic I'll be looking at a £1.5 million turn over at the end of my first year as a homeless man. It's difficult to run a private business and many go under, even if your cakes are extra delicious.
Whatever is acceptable in the future to sustain a decent quality of life but obviously aspiring for something higher than that.
