Add another 10+ for the degree and another 10+ for a year or two of experience. Also, other companies (Amazon, financial companies, etc) pay better. I'm just surprised you can get a sales position making that kind of money. |

I am curious what limits you are playing to earn that amount with that amount of time. I would also look at some of the income trusts in Canada as good plays. Steady income and good returns. Let me know if you want soem names.

J [/ QUOTE ] J is completely correct on this subject. 100k+ isn't unheard of straight out of undergrad. Friend who is not in Cali makes ~75k working ~35 hours a week. Shipz. |

In fact, I know quite a few people that came out of CMU that aren't making that much. |
