    I am not sure if there is a thread already on this. But a lot of my friends lost their job during this covid period. So,
    What's your job and your annual salary?

    I will start first.

    Healthcare sector and €75K.

    Teacher, Nurse, Guard in the first 5 years all fall well short of any salary mentioned here so far so don't wallow in despair too much. The demographic here will also skew towards:

    1. Younger
    2. City based
    3. STEM/Tech
    4. Propensity to Boast

    That said, salary transparency is absolutely disgraceful in this country and its seen as something shameful to be seen talking about money or investing in anything other than property or Dairy Co-Ops. I would welcome more transparency and knowledge overall about wages, as well as COL increases for Teachers/Nurses in urban areas.

    Saying Healthcare sector generally like that is about as broad as it gets..... You could be in any role from nursing to neurosurgery!

    I'll post back next year when I've made the required life and career changes that threads like this tend to provoke within me!

    Also remember salary isn't everything. You could have a high salary but very little disposable income if you have kids, high rent etc.

    You could be on 35k with no kids, low enough mortgage etc and have far more disposable income.

    I'd also prefer a low stress mid level job to a high stress well paid one. That's just me though.

    So younger people with way less experience are earning more than people who have been in the industry for 20+ years? Where is the facepalm emoji.

    Everytime I see this thread pop up I always wonder if there really is a correlation between amount earned and no life outside of boards.ie

    It seems to be the ones who claim they get paid shed loads are also the ones who spend all their life on this website.

    Who needs money when you have boards it seems!
