How Your Income Stacks Up?





Kiplinger reports:
The numbers here come from an analysis of 2007 tax returns, the most recent ones that have been studied.

The data show that an income of $32,879 or more puts you in the top half of taxpayers. Earning a bit more than twice that much -- $66,532 -- earns you a spot among the top 25% of all earners. You crack the elite top 10% if you earn more than $113,018.

And $410,096 buys top bragging rights: Earn that much or more and you're among the top 1% of all American earners.
Some interesting numbers.
