[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Double biglaw. But remember I am happier to disclose my income on this board than other stats. Like, say, how many hours of screen time a day my kids have. When it’s a “good” number for you, you post it willingly. When it isn’t, you skip the thread. [/quote]

Exactly this. Much happier to talk about my salary than my weight, for example. People like to bragg, even anonymously. All the people earning $50k don’t post about it here.[/quote]

The OP didn’t ask us poors to post. Actually I’m not poor (in my mid-50s as a capped GS15 I’m almost up to OP’s standard but never will be) but I’m not exceptional on DCUM. On the plus side,[b] I weigh the same 125 lbs as I did when I got married. So I’ll brag about that instead.[/b] [/quote]

That’s something to brag about for sure. [/quote]

I do too but I also earn $230K.[/quote]

A capped GS-15 isn’t far off from that when you consider the pension benefits.[/quote]

That depends.  I work for a non-profit for 250K with an annual bonus of 50K.  I also receive a 6% 403b contribution with 100% matching (vs. 5% in the Fed), much better health and dental benefits.  I also receive a 1.5% pension for every year of service (vs. 1% in the Fed).  In my case, the nonprofit sector is much better than the Fed.[/quote]

DP - that's great, but also extremely rare, as you likely know.  Very few non-governmental employers offer pensions anymore - and most non-profits don't pay that well, either.  So if you work for a non-profit unicorn, it may be better than a capped GS-15, but you also have to get that unicorn job in the first place.[/quote]

Those unicorn nonprofit jobs tend to be in two places…associations and trade unions. Preferably ones with a stable source hefty recurring or mandatory dues revenue and lobbying activities. [/quote]

I’ve pulled up my association’s tax forms and I’ve seen the Execs make 200-380k and CEO around 500-600k. And most of our execs wouldn’t make it in the corporate world [/quote]
