Hey all, the majority of us on this site are on the corporate grind. Some of us work 80 hour weeks, others work 50, and some are fortunate to work even less. Curious, if you could take the chips off the table and cash in, in a sense… how much would you want to make / year through your 40’s if on the flip side you could be guaranteed to work max 40 hour work weeks in a low stress environment. Assuming a decently ramped scale to that level, and pretty much maxed there apart from yearly raises for inflation..

What? 😂
precisely
depends if I have a mortgage or passive income at that time
but about tree fiddy
this is a fake question / fake news
no job pays 200-250K in finance well working only 40 hours
you will top out eventually.. the high paying jobs
if this is a tech question, this is a trick question, we all know tech bros coding their way to 6 figures easy
by the time im 40? probably 200-250K
yeah you're right, 40 was low. call it 40-50 depending on the week.
There's a ton of these jobs at banks. They're just not in areas that are glamorous by the standards of this message board.
Agree with this strongly.
theyse jobs will be phased out / automated in next 20 years anywayws.
This is completely false- know plenty of senior folks in finance that make millions working 20 hour weeks. Just doesn’t happen in IB/PE.
Long Only Asset Management does. Am living proof. Won't make quite that much this year, but my superior makes more than double that and works ~40-45 hours/week. He's 43
Some of the big AM shops offer insane comp/work ratio. PMs at a big fund make shit loads of money to essentially track an index- know a guy who runs a big fund and he maybe works 10 hours a week.
They exist
Location/family dictates this answer.
Lots of kids in NYC? At least 500k in total income, not just salary.
1 kid in Bismark? 175 to 225.
