Hi Fishes,
Are there any career paths in Canada for former consultants that can lead to a $500K+ annual salary? PE is not an option for me. Is there anything else I should be targeting? I'm really tired of working hard and still feeling poor.

Best way to get 500k in the bank or equivalent to getting post tax of 500k ie 280-300 in bank is to become n independent contractor. Not even svp’s or md’s making that much here. The day i accepted this I shifted to independent contracting

Our firm will pay you $500K at tenured manager level in Toronto. Quite a few ex-mck have joined us in the last few years.

like

Analyst = BA/A/AC
Consultant = Sr BA/ Sr A/ Sr AC
VP = A/C
SVP = EM/PL/M
Director = AP/Principal/SM
Partner = Jr Partner?/Partner
PMD = Partner/PMD

And then you donate half to the government :)

7 year lawyer here. Been with the same big national firm all 7 years (not BigLaw) doing complex litigation. Been working remote a long time due to moving around for wife’s job. As a result of the moving was bumped off partner track. I’m looking at a great small firm that will be a practice change (but still litigation). I’m told they’re looking for someone with less experience and they’re skeptical because of my experience. It’s frustrating. How do I overcome this?

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide. My main argument to choose blockchain is the easy entry with little experience and high salary, I plan on growing my skills during the bear market and get a job once the market recovers. Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.

Evening! Dog owners who live in condo rentals downtown.. did you tell your landlord you had a dog? I’m in a rental with a lease that says no pets (i’m sure a common clause?) and i didn’t have any pets moving in. 6 months in, i got a puppy lol. I don’t want to invite potential conflict by updating my landlord, my lawyer partner says the no pets clause is void in toronto anyway - but I worry about a bad landlord reference if they find out i.e come for repairs.
