  1. How much do managers generally make?

    I recently started my training, and my trainer, who is the top face and owner of my local fed, said referees are in much more demand than wrestlers are. He says wrestlers are a dime a dozen, while no one who breaks into the business think to become referees. His assistant trainer actually told...

    Any help on this?
  3. How much do managers generally make?

    Didn't anyone see my last post? I do have a job. Well, not really a job, but a source of income nonetheless. It's my SSI. I was asking if I could arrange to be paid under the table so that my SSI isn't penalized. Also, I'm interested in being a referee now, not a manager. In case you're...
  4. How much do managers generally make?

    Let me ask this: If I asked them nicely, would a typical promotion be willing to pay me in under-the-table cash instead of taxable income? I receive SSI for my vision (not just anyone with glasses can get it; your naked vision must be HORRIBLE), but it's penalized whenever I make taxable...
  5. How much do managers generally make?

    You're missing the point, Montana. I'm not interested in living in mansions, staying in five star hotels, and eating caviar. If that's what I wanted, THEN I'd be "doing it for the money." I'm willing to sleep in my car because I can't afford a hotel, but hey, I have to at least make more...
  6. How much do managers generally make?

    The problem is, I've tried contacts before, and my eyes aren't sticky enough to keep them in. All I have to do is nod too hard and they'll pop out. As for being hated, there's a whole list of things that almost always work. Insulting the fans, the more tabooed the insult, the better...
  7. How much do managers generally make?

    Can I get some numbers? I know numbers have already been given, but you make it seem as if I can actually make a full-time living off of managing. Also, what about a referee? The main reason I don't want to be a wrestler is because of the pain. Referees take bumps, but not as frequently as...
  8. How much do managers generally make?

    What kind of job can one get that will allow them to travel the way a wrestling talent needs to to get from one show to another?
  9. How much do managers generally make?

    Then how do managers who are just starting off become established, if they can't live off the entry level salaries.
  10. How much do managers generally make?

    I'm talking on a per-show basis on the indy circuit. See, I have dreams of being a wrestling manager, and I understand that I'm "paying my dues" by making very little, but I don't really care about living large yet. What I care about is living at all. I still have to pay the bills, so what...
