How did you do it, please?
Train slaying monsters and study a lot. Reading books like “Ghouls and Alghouls”. 100k is a hefty bag of coins
Wat
Got to low 6 figures during an internship, then took a full time job that was also 6 figures. I guess the story was simple for me: did a bachelor's and worked in Silicon valley where pay is higher than 6 figures for some people
You son of a I'm jelly.. that's awesome 🔥🔥
Above 6 figures means at least 7 figures
Luck
live in a high COL area 😂😅😭
This. Six figures in the Bay Area is pretty much guaranteed here as an ic. Unfortunately you’re still poor on six figures here.
Graduated college and got a first job.
I applied to a job
Low COL areas, moved around to lots of new jobs and networked and did side work that I would post a lot.
Finally started asking for what I thought I should get instead of just taking what was offered and lowballing myself. Started in clerical stuff making $8/hr 15 years ago and just kept moving up step by step. Eventually realized I could ask for higher base pay when moving to a new role and would often get it.
