Your salary then and now...

[DCBuckFan]

Per the original post, are there actually people out there that make $64K a year?

I figured 2.5
and 3.

Also, remember that $64 K in NY, San Fran, or DC is not equal to $64 K in Ohio... my Grandparents house that just sold in Akron for $95 K would sell for over $400 K here in the DC area, not exaggerating.

My reason for bumping. I am relocating. The cost of living is the same or more at the new location. A job interview I have coming up would be a 14% pay cut and put me at 1.11. Would you consider it? Keep in mind I have been out of school for 4 years.

Went through a career transition in the mid-90s that set me back a few years but my skill levels at golf and pool peaked during that era.

The comparison is a bit out because the cost of living here is 40% less than where I had my first job. Also, my first salary was very low but I took it because it was the right job.

interesting concept... starting very low helps the numbers

w/ base target bonus 8.84

Nearly 10 years

Salary is 4.8 and 15 years, but that is misleading with all of the perks I get.

Probably closer to 6-6.5 with all of the ancillary built in.
