i graduated in may '05 with my masters, set a goal for myself of 6 figures in three years. I got annoyingly close but didn't reach it. I should reach in the next six months to a year. Oh well, I'm living a really nice life so I can't complain.
For me, the drive to reach the goal was there. Being Indian and choosing not to go into the medical field (i'm stereotyping, but in my family and friends it happens to be true), I am being judged on a different scale. Among my family, there are 2 surgeons, 2 pharmacists, and several engineers. Among my friends, I have several doctors, several dentists, and several lawyers. Mind you, they are all +/- 3 years my age. My income is considered bottom barrel in comparison. I have to work hard to get up the same level, mostly just to live the lifestyle that they have and that, by extension, I expect from myself.
But if we are counting stock options, I hit the 100k mark March 17, 2008.![]()
What did you study? I'm starting to see a lot more Indians move away from IT, engineering, medicine, etc. and more into business. There's a tremendous surge of entrepreneurial activity in India, similar to what it was like in the US during the dotcom era. Seems a lot more want their MBA than anything else.

Right now I'm on course to make about 62K this year. I'm 23. Pay raises arent the greatest around my job, I'm only expecting a 3% raise this year which is pretty much what everyone gets even if you are the most outstanding employee ever, our management doesn't care and only gives what they have to, which is 3%.
perhaps you should look into selling something less readily availableOriginally posted by: Raduque

I have read enough posts, and PMs in some instances, by some of the members posting in here to be reasonably certain that they are telling the truth about breaking $100k at a young age.
That said, I would like say to them: don't start feeling too good bragging about your accomplishments. There's always someone out there who made more money than you at a younger age. These people would make your accomplishments look like nothing, just as you came in this thread and made everyone else look like crap.
Come on now, tell us the truth. They just sat by while you played video games right? :laugh:Originally posted by: zinfamous

What age did u break $100k per year salary mark.? Granted that it depends on where you live and most people on AT get 8 figure 1st jobs what would be a realistic estimate for a six figure salary expectation. 4 years - 6 years -8 years or may 2-3 job changes
