Was hoping to get in Goldman Sachs as an intern of some sort. I have a blue collar background, I am a junior in college, going for finance. I would be open to any job as well. I am a very hard worker and I let my actions do the talking. Extremely self motivated. I own a small business, however, I am just growing tired of it. I have always wanted to work as an investor, so I enrolled myself in college 3 years ago. I have a wife and kids and I am no stranger to work. My work ethic is unmatched. Ty

Respectfully, why does it matter?
External validation is like throwing whispers into a black hole. It won’t fill it up and it wastes a lot of energy.
If you’re happy with what you negotiated. Be happy. If you’re unhappy with it, revisit it 6-12 months in, aligned to the performance cycle.
If you’re wondering how you did relative to others in the same position, look it up on GlassDoor.
I think I just needed validation from someone who has been on the road kind of saying you did great or you’re missed out on something even just knowing. But I completely understand what you say about external validation I think that’s what I was hoping for when I should just be happy and proud of what I negotiated.
I started at 64k in a HCOL area in a mid-tier firm and my raise after a year was 70k, after being a top performer.
I grew up poor, and I always heard 70k is the magic salary that allows you to live a relatively, financially stable life. I was super stoked to hear that I made it to that 70k milestone, but the partner seemed surprised that I was happy about it. As if he was expecting me to be disappointed.
After working for a few more years and realizing my worth, I jumped around and I'm now earning enough to the point where I couldn't believe 70k sounded astronomical to me just three years ago.
I don't blame myself for seeing that $6k increase in my salary back then and being excited about it in front of my rich partner. I felt like all my hard work was finally paying off and I never had that kind of money before.
Your $5k increase from negoiating is comparable to 1 year's worth of work for me. You may feel like, had you known, you could've gotten a little bit more like I also thought for a little bit. But soon enough, you might look back and think the same thing that I did-- that you are off to much bigger and better things, and whatever extra you could have made by negoiating, can also be earned down the road.
PwC1, thank you for your input! Very inspirational!
