Account people none. Creatives could get a 10k bump, could jump to another agency for 50k+ or more. Years ago a friend of mine won a Grand Prix, and jumped from a Senior AD to a CD role adding a cool 100k to his salary in the process

About month ago I was diagnosed with coronary artery disease (CAD) and had to go through cardiac catheterization to get a stent.
I am in mid 30s and it's unbelievable that i have got this. Have been quite down mentally for last few weeks, and don't think if I can sustain the consulting life anymore.
I am working hard to stop the progression of disease and potentially reverse it. Hope things work out.
