[quote=Anonymous]To answer OPs question…., Software developers for big tech companies.

Amazon, Google, meta, etc. start new graduates at $140 base + $30 bonus + $100k equity over 4 years (which, of course can go down, but will likely go up in value).

Right out of undergrad these are the one of the highest paying jobs - with minimal work, investment in clothes and office politics, and are mostly fun for the types of kids that do it well.

These kids can grind and do this for a few years, before they settle down and coast, making $200k in today’s money for the rest of their career.  They can invest consistently, and retire early.

These are the kids that we hire every day and we can’t find enough. When I graduated with my GRADUATE degree 20 years ago, consulting did this for me. But in 2003, I made the equivalent of what is less than $100K today. I was able to save a lot of money and travel, but I had to deal with office politics and socializing, which was not easy for an introvert like me. I settled down and started a family and I’m doing really well now, but the SWE have it pretty good.
