I am skeptical outside of international work, oil and gas, or family business......or living in Manhattan (and it would still be high).

I’m a VP and Principal in an midsized consulting firm and a two year EI making $100k is highly improbable. Not poking at you but I am firmly aware of my industry’s compensation.

My second year working solar, I made 190k strictly commission. I was 26. Haven’t touched that since

But once I saw the direction the tide was turning, that money allowed me to get out of the game and buy a house +2acres in LA.

I’m back in school and an OT poor now though.

Personal goal was to hit $100k/yr by the time I was 30. Missed it by 3 months.

Two years out of High School, got invited to PGA Q School.

Got in the top 30 and acquired my PGA Players Card.

Callaway sent me all kinds of swag and a check for $182,647.00

Boom -

Um, EITs in civil do not make $100k in their 2nd year. What is the rest of the story?

Male hooker?

Probably 8-9 years post college.

I remember leaving college thinking when I make 6 digits, I will be rich. Drive a Porsche, huge house, etc. Then inflation and kids come along

These threads are almost as good as last week’s classic of “how much can you bench?” Everyone pulls in $250k and benches north of 500.

About to turn 30. Sitting at 90K right now... In Labor Relations.

Also get 14 K a year in a trust so technically I guess I'm over the 100
