What do you do that you earn six figures?

It seems like a lot of people make a lot of money and it seems like I’m missing out on something. So those of you that do, whats your occupation that pays so well?

Im in public at 105k after a recent raise. Public is short staffed and all firms have been providing nice raises to retain people this year

How long did it take though to get to 100k after starting in public?

I'll be making 100k after my raise next April, I'd be 4.5 years into public at that point
