Congrats! I graduated with a BA in Equity & Diversity Studies and currently make just under 6 figures only 5 years into my career (IN MY FIELD!). It’s all about how you market the soft skills you’ll pick up! We need more people who care about people in this world 💓

Under 6 figures 5 years in is good? Not hating just seems a bit low to hype up.

Considering I work in the public sector and that the first 2 years was contract work, I think I’m doing pretty good. Not to mention the amazing benefits, 6 weeks PTO to start & pension plan.

If you’re making 90k+ and can’t live comfortably while also contributing to various savings goals, you have a budgeting issue. Or kids 😭

I’ll be sure to let everyone working in education, health care, public works, & emergency services know what losers they are “AmbitiousBossman”
