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.
The AP Calculus teacher will have an easier time getting a job in a desirable district.

Me. I was unemployed for 3 years during the great recession. So $0 at 30.

$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.
Right. I mean, you’re not old but this thread really makes no sense unless we look at the year a person was 30. I was 30 in 2001 and that’s not going to match up to someone who is 30 now.
When I was 30 in 2001 I made approximately $40k. Someone in the same position today makes about $67k. I hit $100k about 3 years ago.

Quite the opposite actually. I like having friends who will look at me and whom I can do nice things for. Thus, I would rather have friends who are worse off than me financially.

I don't think I knew hardly anyone making 75K or more by the time they were 30. My group of friends are nurses, teachers, non profit employees, graphic designers, window washers, pastors, florists, etc, etc.

It is all relative. Ron Pearlman became the first man in America to ever make one billion in one year. That was around 30-35 years ago. At that time he made the average lifetime salary of a person every 30 seconds
Today we are closing in on having the first trillionaire

Another journalist here — I was making $100k before 40, but I was not making $75k by 30.
Same here.

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.
Sorry, can you give a citation for "salary discrimination is non-existent"?
