Congrats! Assuming this is 6 figure salary, not net worth? Either is still a worthy achievement.
Next thing to focus on is growing your savings / investment. I know I waited too long to take retirement and savings seriously, and wish I would have started earlier. If you’re in a LCOL area, you should have more flexibility to put more money away for the future.
This is exciting and congrats! I got across the line in the last few weeks too!
I found ‘found out’ quite passive, have you just been letting life happen and six figures come your way. you have total control when and how your income comes to you. You can also negotiate if market relevant.
I say this as someone who was excited about 60K then excited by $72 then offended by anything under $110. I nailed $140k package from 72. You can too, just grab life by the balls!
Well done OP. In the last 12 months, my old manager put me on a coaching plan. Those always lead to PIPs. Went to a new job, made 30k more and now moving to a new opportunity earning another 30k. Things happen for a reason!!
I started off 23/24 at 70k in nyc Was excited with 83 when I got “tier 1” my first year 25-26 was at 95 (static bc of the pandemic) I switched groups and jumped to 160 at 27 And now am making 231 at 28
It’s crazy how fast salary change can impact your perspective. I think trying to avoid lifstyle creep has been the hardest in the last year and a half.
But as you pointed out OP it’s definitely a good time to be optimistic even with a recession because we both have so much time left !
Congratulations that’s amazing!!! 2 six figure earners at 28 is incredible and your future is so bright

I went to art school as well. I had to move from graphic design to product design (UX/UI) to accelerate to over $100K.
