[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]25, lawyer. My DH is about to turn 40, and we hope he will this year, architect.[/quote] Pretty much any lawyer who goes straight to law school from college and then works for a firm. Current starting pay in major cities is $160K. [/quote] But that's only for people under 35. Starting salary was in the mid 60s in the late 1980s.[/quote] One, not all lawyers right out of law school start at $160k, that's starting pay at the absolute top-tier of major law firms. Many lawyers start at a fraction of that. Two, a little something called inflation means that a $65k salary in 1988 is equal to $123,000 in 2011 dollars, so yes top tier starting rates have gone up in real terms, but not quite as dramatically as the PP makes it out.
