If you want to share figures (you don’t have to) you might probably want to use a throwaway account, better safe than sorry.

    Just got an email yesterday from a guy who wants to talk with me about a job paying 50% more than what I currently make. No joke.

    I work in a very small, very niche field. Jobs are hard to come by, but they pay.

        Eh, it’s not that simple. It rarely is. There’s always trade-offs. And the job hasn’t been offered to me yet. But I will talk to the man.

      You should definitely pursue that. That’s how making 40% or 50% more can happen overnight - by simply changing jobs. Of course you’ve got to factor in the extraneous things like commute and child care, but that’s the general rule of thumb. Change jobs every 3 years, make more. It’s statistically proven.
