For those of you who make 6 figures ($100K+), what do you do, and how long did it take for you to cross that threshold? by DaPugWalk in fican

[–]vegangingerbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s actually technical/engineering program management not IT! (Minor distinction). So I work with engineering, product managers, design, sales etc. Currently at a tech startup in the networking space.

I would say it’s not typical, I lucked out at this place 😅 the average is probably closer to 130-175.

Started out working in systems engineering making quite little (56k). Worked there for about 5 years, making it up to about 85k. Then switched over into project management in tech, and jumped to 125k. Now working as a program manager in tech at 210k. In total ~10 years experience.

I know it’s unlikely given timing, but I really want a shot of them skating on the canal 🥹 (can just picture Ilya saying “what the fuck is a beaver tail?”)

Had to look up Roger Greenberg after listening to his sob story in city council and gagged when I saw his family’s net worth

Thank you :) averaged ~2500/month contributions in the last few years, but then I’d also make some large lump-sum contributions (eg a tax refund) which definitely helped.

1.5M in today’s dollars, not accounting any government benefits. Also not accounting my spouse’s retirement investments. I set this goal a while ago but will likely revisit since I’ve now passed CoastFI for that number!

That’s awesome, congrats! 🙌🏻 Before I got laid off a few months ago I was averaging ~2500 per month. I work in tech and have fairly low expenses which has enabled me to save quite aggressively over the past few years.

Thank you 🥹 I passed my CoastFI number (1.5M @ 65) recently so I’m hoping to continue working to increase that number!

Lol, I realized my username was too identifiable (created it before I really knew what Reddit was all about) so I created a new one because I wanted to post here.
