I feel like i was left by the money/career train. I went to good schools, studied my ass of in college and now after my bachelors and masters degree, i am still not making what i expected. I am thinking of changing careers as i feel like my current one is on a dead end. I work in finance (analyst) and i make $78k/year, i am 30. Will i ever break the hundreds salary wise? What am i doing wrong? My job only offers 3% in salary inc. max so i can stay there forever n never make enough. How do you people who are successful in their career do it? Please share experiences n info along with age n career field/job title. Thanks

Want to make more money, take risk and own your own company.

My boss' boss' boss is 34 and clears somewhere around $700k. My old boss was 28 and cleared $250. I have a 40+ year old and a 50+ year old who report to me and make under $100k.

There will always be those who make more, and those who make less.... If you start comparing yourself you'll go nuts.

Can I ask what type of field you are in?

Diversified financial services. Think places like Chevy chase, Wells Fargo, Capital One, BOA, PNC, eTrade, Freddie, Genworth, Bloomberg, etc.

I am very familiar with those places... I don't think Freddie Mac ever pay that much, even for mid level executives. Certainly, not now since they were placed under conservatorship by US govt in 2008. Everone's pay is capped.

The top salaries are required to be reported on the annual report to SEC... Do some research before you start spreading mis-information.

Well obviously the list was intended to be indicative of the type of firm, not a personal affirmation of fact that all of those companies pay exactly the same. Besides, I said like not "such as". Like indicates "similar to", whereas such as enumerates a specific list. And I'm fully aware there are SEC disclosures as well, but I assure you that my $190k salary and mid level title hardly meets the criteria for inclusion.

BS in finance from a state school, got a job working for a lender doing loan servicing. Left after a couple years since I didn't see a real path to growth to get to the higher up positions. Started working in the equity/investment side of a business in the healthcare field, worked my butt off for a few stressful years during a key time for the organization. Landed a couple high profile projects and didn't mess up. I was probably put of my league at the time but I made it anyways. Got a couple big promotions in a row.
