You are at top of range for your age (assuming you are 37). Only some (emphasis some) banking, PE, and law make more… maybe tech as well

Compared to full US: 99th percentile
Compared to your cohort of tenured partners assuming 10 years to PPMD and 5 years of partner growth: more average

I mean, if you don’t know that as a grown ass adult and an (allegedly) sophisticated business person, I don’t know what to tell you

Pretty damn good I would say.

very good TC - how you’re tracking to FI? TC is 200k lower (34), slightly less as an individual but we’re comparable if we include both our incomes. were currently work optional and plan on retiring before 40 since we’re fortunate to have invested early and have rental and social media income

Time to wake up...... Dream is over

It cant be at an audit firm because that’s not low stress. If not an audit or consulting firm, making in the 600s is only possible at places like Netflix or a private company. Companies like SpaceX or pre IPO companies pay equivalent in salaries in equity. But good for you. 600K is good for even LA. Is the bonus all cash or dependent on sales?

Bonus based on revenue I manage
