Defining custom breakpoints/steps in a range slider

Defining custom breakpoints/steps in a range slider

Hello all - 

I'm not terribly experienced with JQuery so I thought I'd ask for help.  I need to create a range slider with a min and max slider.  Common stuff.  The slider in this example is for Income.  I can define steps or break points of $10k easily enough so that the slider breaks at every $10k interval.  

However, I need to define custom, non "linear" breakpoints for the slider.  In my scenario, I need to acquire income levels anywhere from $0 to $250,000 and I need the break points to be: 

<15000 
15000-25000 
25000-35000 
35000-50000 
50000-75000 
75000-100000
100000-125000 
125000-150000 
150000-175000 
175000-200000 
200000-250000 
250000-500000 

In other words, the sliders would automatically "snap" to these values.  

Here's my test so far: 

Any help would be appreciated!
