lol not everyone here makes 500k just because they have 20 years of experience. Most companies keep people in that 150-300k range.

If you’re too expensive with decades of experience, you’re probably already laid-off already. Like someone else mentioned, most companies won’t have non-C level folks just cruising at 600k, they want that money to themselves.

This happened often when I worked at Fannie Mae. If you were in a Director level or below, and were 50+ and making too much money, they’d give them packages so that they’d get paid 2-3 years salary to leave. Lots of people would just take the deal.

I don't do anything especially unique, but it is all related to private investment funds -- advising on investment in them, establishing them and advising their sponsors.

What exactly is so unique about what you do that you're underpaid?

Very similar except for the expensive coastal location. I don’t think I’m underpaid.

The cost of living factor might be the big difference here. I'd be happier with my $465k if I lived somewhere cheaper. I mean, it is still good, but it would be super great in some mid sized medium cost of living place. My quality of life is not great either. I grind pretty hard in an expensive place.

Oh for the love, get over yourself. I live in NOVA and we earn 200k less and do just fine. Sheesh.
