Should I be depressed by this thread or inspired? I may get a raise to $150k/yr and I thought that was doing well for the northeast, but this just makes me feel like I've made bad career choices to be in the workforce for 8 years with only this salary to show for it. I genuinely can't tell if I'm doing well for my age/experience/location or if I'm suckered into a job that isn't valuing me.
