My 8 year salary progression:
🔹2014: Best Buy - electronics sales @ $12 an hour. Super broke,
super despressed, super lost in life.
🔹2015: American Express - Sr. Product Manager @ $116k yr. This was
my very first 6 figure salary and my very first corporate job (to land this
role I took out student loans to complete an MBA and a 6 month software
development bootcamp).
🔹2017: Amazon - Manager of Product @ $275k yr. Amazon poached me out
of the blue and I have no idea why they paid me this much money for doing
essentially the same thing I was doing at AMEX.
🔹2019: Amazon salary exploded to $400k a year due to stock growth. I
lived super simple, didn’t have a car, rode my bicycle to work, and saved
like crazy.
🔹2019: Turned down a principal product manager role @ $400k per year
at a small startup in Seattle because I thought that Amazon provided better
long-run brand equity. This company’s stock tripled within a year and
because of that my annual comp would have been over $600k if I took the role
- Whoops.
🔹2021: Left corporate to start Freedom Fund, a real estate
investment fund that helps others drastically accelerate financial freedom -
projected 2022 earnings based on current trajectory: $millions. |
