<p>^^ Sakky’s right. An avg is not really very representative of the individual student. One could go into real estate and make well under six-figures a few years and then suddenly make 350k in one year.</p>
<p>I know a VP of a fortune 500 whose stock options grew in value by 750k in one day simply because it was announced that another fortune 500 would purchase his company. The point of this analogy is to show that high level positions often don’t produce consistent pay outs.</p>
