I started making $75k when I was 33 back in 2004. So what?! I'm an N of 1

Well, considering the median personal income in the US is less than $38,000, statistically more than half aren't.

Discussing salary is the only way that many of my female friends found out that they were underpaid relative to their male counterparts. But yes, let's work on keeping this salary info hush hush so the discrimination can continue.
Salary discrimination is non-existent. Slice your data properly.

Many. STEM postdoc and NGO. Pretty much none of our peers were breaking 70k by 30 and we certainly were not.

At 30 I made about $100k and at 33 I’m over $200k. Most of my friends are similar but a few fall into this lower income bucket.

I work in higher ed, so everyone. At 53, I still haven’t hit 75k per year.

I was an assistant professor, fresh out of grad school and was making a lot less. Now that was 15 year ago, but still.

Lololololol, neither my husband nor I were making 75k until well into our 30s and I think we're more well off than a lot of people we know. Also I know a ton of people who went to get grad degrees in their late 20s or early 30s and before that were definitely not making 75k.
What an absolutely ridiculous question.

DCPS teachers make a lot. There were gym teachers making well over $100,000.
Gym teachers lots of places make over 100k. If you’ve been at it for some years you can probably make close to 150k in Montgomery Co.
All teachers are on the same scale. All that matters is degree/number of credits (lane) and number of years worked (step.) It doesn't matter if you teach elementary art or AP Calculus.

I'm old (59) so almost nobody I knew was earning $75k in 1993.
$75k today would have been about $37k back then. I'd say about 1/3 of the people I knew were earning less than $37k. I think i was making making more - about $40k.

Many people with graduate degrees aren’t earning 75k. You can be educated and not well off.

I know many people who were making less than that. Researchers, professors, teachers, people working in non-profit in any capacity, social workers...
