So they can underpay your ass. They will have a budget for 75k, you go in there asking for $55k thinking you’re doing something. Meanwhile, the white person asking for 82k. They will take what they are shorting you and pay them.
How much are you making and are you happy with it?

i played the corporate game for almost 15 years after school. i had a nice run but i got tired of all the bullshyt and politics and threw in the towel. for the last few years i've been working in my family business just focusing on growth and succession planning. it's not the same money but i don't deal with the charades and masquerading any more.
I want to make more money. I got so many ideas on how to but haven't taken that leap of faith

It's funny you mentioned me itt cuz we just about to make a move that will enable me to work on some personal projects/ side hustles. A cramped nyc apartment is no place to concentrate, write, plan, etc.
Rather make 40k no debt than 100k with 55k in student loans

As long as you get a good job to service the debt, it’s worth it. Generally you pay $100 a month for each $10K you take out in loans if you’re paying it off in 10 years. So making $100,000 with $55K loans is roughly $7,000 a year in payments which is equivalent to just making $93,000. That’s a good deal.
Keep pushing brotha. You did once. You can do it again. 100k still is a great salary anyway.

You right. I need to make at least $60,000 if I wanna save. Living up north ain't cheap. 1 bedrooms go for $1,000 easy

31 is young. Plenty of time to make a career change. What are your plans?

I was actually thinking about getting into some nba analytics stuff
Those jobs don't make nearly what I do now though
Probably going to do some stuff part time and see how it goes
I mean are you hurting for cash though....I was actually thinking about getting into some nba analytics stuff

What's more important a job you love or making 6+ figures being miserable.
Plus you can always do temp or part time work during the day or offseason....
