I am well paid. But two-thirds of my net worth is from my house appreciating. If you’re not an investment guru, just buy the biggest house you can afford in a good neighbourhood in a good city.

If you focus on a long enough time horizon, the sun is fizzling out and all life in our solar system will perish so what’s the point of anything?

But in the meantime, certain things will always be of value … real estate, food, clothing, transportation, weapons etc. … AI will take a lot of white collar jobs, but the people who own property will still be better off than the people who rent and people who own the farms will be better off than the people working on them. It’s been the same for thousands of years and won’t change in our lifetime.

I’ve worth 12M now

The answer is that some creatives have done well and some haven’t. But few advertising creatives have ever achieved significant wealth, happiness, or job security as employees. In general, this is no longer a great career. But if you love it, just be sure to reduce your spending and increase your investments. The financial road will be rocky.

Man, this thread is screaming that yall really don’t want us to know what you’re paid or worth.

There are just so many factors that won’t be helpful to you.

My net worth is a little over 1 mil. But without knowing my age, resume, family situation, whether my spouse works, or where I live, that’s pretty useless info.

I started working this year after my master in a European office. I don’t have a focus related to my specialty. I am being staffed to a project that doesn’t seem bringing me more skills except the soft skills. I started looking for new opportunities in the market, but I suffered from being rejected. As an expat, I have a visa constraint, which makes some positions out of my range. These days, I quite struggle with getting myself motivated in my work. Advice, please!

Big name shop. Shitty account, but you get opportunities beyond that.

Shop with bad reputation that lacks PR and hardly enters awards but has a lot of book-worthy projects.

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

The particular job I’m looking at has this on the listing and I’m curious as to what their budget actually is. Do I assume a range?

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
