[quote=Anonymous]For a subset of kids who are smart, personable and lucky, the salaries can be very high. A family member is at a good, abet second tier finance company where a combination of ability and personality placed him on a good team at his firm. While the actual salary was more than decent at $90k, the bonus potential was even better. With signing bonus, he made $170k first year. Some of my DC's older friends are receiving tech offers between $200 - 300K. They are exceptionally brilliant though and already have experience with next generation CS research. Is this realistic for most kids, probably not. It's the good fortune of the few that is setting expectations sky high. IMO nothing to worry about. The first few interviews will adjust their personal reality very fast.[/quote]
