What should I ask for comp at something like this?

A little background:

Special situations group that mostly acquires non-performing loans in the range of $10 -$100M.

Not your typical 2/20 fee structure, so less PE like, more AM style.

I was sent an email from HR after my final round today to send my expected range of total comp.

Company is in Houston.

What would be a reasonable number? I know that all in comp in "normal" PE ranges from 150k - 350k, but this is different.

I am thinking all in of $90k but do not want to sell myself short and would greatly appreciate some help.

 
Illinoisprogrammerisajoke:
ask for 200k then ask for 70k then ask for 100k

Ha, this is certainly an interesting negotiating strategy.

I say he opens at $5 million, immediately comes down to $45k, then settles in up at $125k.
