Met someone who mentioned his starting salary on Wall Street was $15,000 in 1970. Adjusted for inflation that's about $95,000. Interesting that the standard hasn't really changed.

For sure.. the base was around 100 until around 2013/14 if I remember correctly... 1970 bonuses were lower though.. from my readings the era of high bonuses really only kicked off from mid 80s
