[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh? My husband could be making 750 or a million, yet he makes 220 as a fed with his education. That's why.[/quote]

220? Hello, Mrs. Biden.[/quote]

Uh, no.  Try SEC, OCC, FDIC, FRB, CFPB, FHFA, FCA, NCUA.... there are plenty of fed agencies above the GS scale.  Do a little research.  [/quote]

Okay, I did some research.

There are some feds who make 220. They mostly are bankers, some are in HR. Some VA docs make 300-400.

If PPs point was that by being paid only 220, her husband is underpaid, is not very sympathetic. If you can make 1m+ at a firm or on Wall Street, that is a reflection of the incredible (and possibly insolvable) income inequality in this country, and doesn't really have much to do with government salaries.

I used to work with those ass***** in one of the above agencies.   I'm a professional. The attorneys did nothing and got everything.. Bonuses, hefty salaries, ability to come and go as they please.  Barf.

What does this mean? That no one can make a high salary, even if they are highly trained and have very marketable skills? Is 220K the ceiling that no one should go over. That sounds pretty dumb.[/quote][/quote]
