Really puts into perspective the “they make over 6 figures” phrase I’d hear growing up.

$100,000 had nearly twice the purchasing power as today, and $100k today has the purchasing power of a decent 50-60k salary from back then.

Sometimes I’ll go on twitter and see someone talking about $50k being a lot of money like the entire country is Mobile, Alabama 20 years ago

Need advice. I’m a super senior content EP at a well known agency in the U.S., where I’ve been for quite some time. Checked out http://Glassdoor.com, and I make at the high end of the ranges for similar agencies. In the past year I’ve also taken on additional responsibilities (outside of traditional EP duties) that have doubled my workload and raised my profile quite a bit.  How should I go about brining up a sizable salary bump (some creatives and even planning peeps earn more with much less responsibility)?
