I get paid 40 cents a mile. I have days I turn in over 600 miles and days I turn in less than 200. I assume this year I will make perhaps what an average teacher with tenure makes in the US. However, because I am paid by the mile I don't really know until the end of the year what I make.

Jobs and Careers. According to the US Census Bureau, the average salary in America is $35,000. Assuming this average remains the same throughout the average working career of 40 years, as a rough way to consider the impact of inflation, then the average American would earn $1,400,000 in their lifetime. Most analysis tools use average household income, which is approximately $51,000. Again assuming 40 income earning years, the average household will earn $2,040,000.
