Today fast forward 22 years later my annual pay including bonus is 190k while my frd barely reached the 100k mark. We both work in the finance sector. |
You guys in mid-forties are earning such modest amounts in financial sector? It's a little inconsistent with those 200-300k figures posted by other financial professionals here.
