Yes Feb 27, 2016

I answered Other, but then I remembered that a couple of times I had large jobs that paid 5 digits in US Dollars. Of course, in each case the month before was slim because I was working on the big job.

Yes, very few times Feb 27, 2016

One of them was very recently. But it's not common.

By the way, the question should have mentioned this is in dollars or euros, otherwise we'll have people with 6-digit amounts.

A few times Feb 27, 2016

It is difficult to achieve this in dollar currency, but I have been doing it every year once or twice. It is not a fluke, because I sometimes bunch up payments to save on transfer charges, so these incomes actually reflect the proceeds of work done over the past several months.

5-digit earnings in Indian rupees is not at all difficult to achieve and it is normal for me to meet this target.

When I've been too busy to invoice a big project before staring the next Feb 27, 2016

and then the next moth looks particularly good. But like most optical illusions - it fades once you've calculated your quarterly earnings...

I was going to add that if I didn't make 5 digits I'd give up, but it depends how you count the summer holiday months. I often count July and August together and end up with roughly a normal month around the holiday.


 
Yes Feb 27, 2016

Any month I work four 35-hour weeks. Which isn't often.

And February. Always manic.

Talking dollars.

Have you noticed? Feb 28, 2016

Did you guys notice that the poll's author chose to remain anonymous?

For a moment, I thought it was someone who wanted to gloat Hey, losers! I make 5-digit income every month! Sort of, like, Donald Trump-ed.

I'll file this poll in the WC box (as in “Who Cares?”)
