If you assume the therapist is working 40hrs/week that would mean he makes $1.2MM per year (before any costs/splits he might have). A million dollars per year is good money anywhere in the country but its much less meaningful in NYC when you have tons and tons of people who make that much and way more. NYC is also a city that attracts wealth from all over the world, pretty much every rich foreigner of the jet-set variety has a home in Manhattan (and other global cities). So it is easy to make one million a year in New York and not feel at all rich. I have a good job and make mid to high six figures but I still feel squarely middle-class here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14245531.post-44761687613796298192008-07-10T11:52:00.000-04:002008-07-10T11:52:00.000-04:00What struck me was how much those therapists must ...What struck me was how much those therapists must be making at $600 a session twice a week. Good heavens! They may not be ultra-rich, but I think they're sitting pretty.lisakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109928304657735676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14245531.post-10524367059035521962008-07-10T11:31:00.000-04:002008-07-10T11:31:00.000-04:00Sign #34 It is OVER...He askes that your half of t...Sign #34 It is OVER...<BR/><BR/>He askes that your half of the assets are reduced by the amount that therapy costs...<BR/><BR/>Thank goodness you got out!
