WHO MAKES 6 FIGURES?

[str8hood]

I make $75k a year in retail. After bonuses, probably $98k.
I have my own business, computer repair. I net about $40k from that on the side.
I guess that puts me in the six-figure category. But it sure doesn't feel like it.

No house yet, no nice car yet. Just banking the money and trying to invest it NOW while the stock market sucks.

If you're actually interested in that as a career and don't mind what it involves, move to a big city.

Those dudes make BANK, cuz it's a nightly duty.

truth right there...ive heard of them making big money in cities

 

[blade br0wn]

the best i can do is figure 8's

I work for the government, I'll be making that when I'm in my early 30's, if I don't find a way to getfired...

Hopefully I'm making six figures. I'm trying to get into law or medicine.

 

[jordanfiend85]

Six figures is not even really rich so to speak (using a 100-200K salary).

I did last year. I work for Hartford. 40K Base + Comm. Last year hit 102K. This year more like 90K. This economy es no bueno. Getting better though. Hartfordgot smacked for liquidity issues and credit rating. My 401K and spp were crushed.

 

[jules300]

[lazyj10]

I rather clear 6 figures.

12 months to go till I make it, though.

I was headed in that track until Cell Bio deaded me, any advice to carry on?

If you're getting tripped up by Cell Bio, I strongly suggest you consider different majors.

I use to work for this company down in Louisiana called MMR, but now i do my own private thing. I found finding jobs on your own makes you moremoney but u take more of a risk.

Not after this bottoming out.
MBA's have finally proved what they're worth.

1. If the economy is still trash in 4 years, y'all got a lot more to worry about.
2. You might have a point if I did banking or consulting or some nonsense like that, but thankfully I don't.

Congrats on the job, no doubt, but how are you so confident about the bonus given the current state of the banking industry?

I wasn't until i talked to a few analysts from my group where i interned this summer about their bonuses a couple days ago, and said they got full bonusesthis year (they receive them in sept) and the managers I have spoken too have told me they aren't cutting back 1st 2nd and 3rd year analyst bonuses at all.The guys taking the big hits on bonus money are the executives, but they already make 10+ milli. Also, the bank I am working for is doing well right nowcompared to it's other competitors.

 

[lazyj10]

Aren't they deferring bonuses, and those paid out or "earned" in September were based prior to the economy's debacle?

How many hours you gonna have to work?

 

[swizzc]

^prob around 80... it sucks but its great experience. technically 1st 2nd and 3rd year analysts dont make bonuses based on how many deals the group closesbecause they aren't experinced enough to be leading deals, just doing all of the *****work. at least thats what management says...
