> So there's a lot more to questions like this than these vacuous answers. It's a psychological game, and if their offer was actually the minimum you were willing to accept, you have to ask what else you could have done, either now or in the past, to set yourself up in a position where you could have "tricked" them into paying more than you were willing to accept. Yes, and that's what I meant when I originally wrote, "So why did you say yes? Pondering that question will reveal a lot about yourself and what you value, and it will also suggest what you should do if you're not happy with your current situation." The point is that once you say yes, that's what you get. So think about why you said yes to a "low" offer. Was it because you didn't know it was a low offer? Then do some homework; get to know the market better. Was it because you did know it was a low offer but didn't know how to work up to a higher one? Then brush up on your negotiating skills or get an agent to represent you. Was it because you're not good at presenting yourself and have learned to live with lower offers? Then get some coaching or talk to a mentor. Do you understand what I mean now? If you said yes to a "low" offer, it was only because you had reason to believe you couldn't do better. So identify that reason and do something about it.
