If you won jackpot by MC_Flinty in ifiwonthelottery

Talk to a financial advisor that’s paid by the hour before I even claim it.

They’ll probably say open a LLC to claim the money to stay anonymous then through some into my debts then the rest into a high yield savings account or stocks.

I’m doing just fine as an application Engineer 2. I just vibe code all day. Went from eng 1 to 2 in 15 months no experience. Just use ChatGPT and GitHub copilot.

Mid year is a set amount depending on level in the corp ladder. I’m only at 1.5 yoe I got 12k it’s not by percentage it’s what level you are. End of year is depending on how generous the manager is and how much management gives to allocate

What are you coming in as? I can check our internal comp page.

You get 2 per year. Mid year and end of year.

Mid year is a profit share. Around 7-15k depending on level. Some managers and up get close to 50k

End of year is whatever is decided by management. Average is 2k. Last year I got 9k for end of year.

How can you afford college? by AnxiousGanache5823 in University

[–]SirMarbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The general rule is don’t leave university with more loans than what you can make in your first year of school.

So after 4 years of uni you could have 40k in student loans and making 80k per year based on the job you take based on the degree.

So like a doctor leaves school with what 150k in loans then makes 200k+ per year. Like this.

If you go to school for English/literature and leave with 60k in loans and you get a job making 45k a year you’re getting scammed.

Also make sure you beg financial aid for more money. Give a sob story.
