Anyone here make 6 figs?

<--- used to

Until last year when my contract was terminated early and pushed me into 6mos. of unemployment 🙁
 
Yes. I'm a partner in a NYC computer consulting co. I make the $$ because I run the company, and I'd recommend knowing how to run a business if you want to make serious money. It isn't as easy as it sounds.

I also do tech work, not as much as I used to, and the skill I recommend for you is flexibility. We still make some big bucks because we get our clients into new stuff. Tech AV/control/remote is big now, security is big, internet video conferencing is huge for us - all of a sudden everybody wants it. Email alternatives and spam control, of course; also (ironically) bulk e-mail. Language translation, and also voice recognition software is almost ready for everyday use. If we did database harvesting we'd be doing a lot of that (we have a close buddy we send folks to).

I also have researchers on staff - that's new. More information is available, so I have more people looking for it.

Good luck.
 
I did a salary survey of ATOT with over 600 responses... I think there were a handful of $100k+ people...

Y'all are suspect...
 
Not yet but I am very close though.

One of my friends is the vice president of a bank and he makes 6 figs easily.

We are still in mid 20's 🙂
 
If my wife chose to go retail instead of clinical she could be making that by herself.
 
I make 6... In the television production business....


🙂


Hint: Think of all the sporting events that are on TV. Think of how many cameras are at each game alone. Think all the guys needed to operate those cameras. Not to mention audio, graphics, videotape...


Of course, lots of overtime figures in here too...
