No, tons of other factors go into that equation. But the clearance opens up more opportunities increasing your odds of finding an open position you qualify for

No, but it'll definitely help.

Depends on what level of clearance. Secret clearances are like a dime a dozen these days.

Nope. More opportunities are open if you've got a clearance than sans clearance, but it's just one checkbox unless you're going for a contractor that takes anyone with a pulse and a clearance.

Currently I make a base of $63k/yr and $1k/mo in bonuses pre-tax.

Is there anyone else in this type of role who is able to share how this compares to similar positions and your general location?

I've been working at a government agency for 6 months, helping to stand up a new team. The job involves interacting with real estate developers. One of the developers reached out to recruit me for a similar position that will pay more than $50k my current salary. I feel guilty, especially since I'd interact with my current team on the other side. It's a hard to turn down that salary, though I feel guilty since my team is thin, and it's only been 6 months!
