Hoping this story inspires others. Went from 15k -> 128k
2014: Graduated college with BS in math, and went to grad school for math. Dropped out after several weeks because of mental health reasons. Didn't know what I was going to do for work. 2015: Got first job out of college as a math tutor at a math learning center. Made 15k a year. During this time, studied for Society of Actuary exams and passed 2 of them. 2016: Moved across the country vertically for first fulltime job at an insurance/consulting company. I was a glorified call center rep, not really using any math. Salary = 49k. Passed one more society of actuary exam. Developed a unique skill by working on public speaking and presentation skills. 2018: Moved across the country horizontally for second fulltime job at another insurance company. This job made use of my public speaking skills, and was able to do it 25% of the time. Salary = 83k. Stopped passing professional actuarial exams. 2019: Promoted, salary = 112k 2020: Salary increased to 115k, with bonus = 128k. I'm not especially smart, just hard working and willing to do things that other people think suck/are boring. Ask me anything. -- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Which states were involved in all these moves? moving to places with higher costs of living isn't exactly "hard work" for a salary increase.

Inspirational stories are nice and all, until the story starts making assumptions as if life is a copy/paste story.
