<p>This is gonna sound like a lot, but I'm shooting for at least 75K for start. After all that pharmacy school I want to get a retail pharmacy job (which typically pays more than hospital jobs) and the medians for that in my area are all over 100K. So in theory, my estimate is kind of low. </p>
<p>On the other hand, I'm gonna take advantage of the loan forgiveness program which makes you work in a rural area for 3 years or so.....and who knows what the salary is like there.</p>
<p>Well, the other choice is that if I land my "dream" job: <a href="https://www.cia.gov/careers/jobs/view-all-jobs/economic-analyst.html%5B/url%5D">https://www.cia.gov/careers/jobs/view-all-jobs/economic-analyst.html</a> </p>
<p>Then 40K is good enough. If I can't get it... then screw public service... Wall Street :D</p>
<p>Augustuscaesar, In my dream world I'd be working at the same place as you, except as a political analyst </p>
<p>It's always nice to dream</p>
<p>I'd be happy with about $150k net of tax. Ideally, $200k net of tax. I say net of tax since gross income in the US means nothing.</p>
<p>Seriously, after 3-4 years of undergrad and 3 years of working my butt off in law school, I'd BETTER make that much money. I'll likely start at ~$100k net of tax and work up to $150k-$200k net of tax. I'll likely live at subsistence level, spending about 30% of my income, while I save up for a house.</p>
<p>Right after I get my Bachelors?</p>
<p>I figure I can get $90K+ a year with about a 4 month vacation...</p>
<p>That being said, I'll only go for $40K a year with a month vacation.</p>
<p>After I graduate with a finance degree I hope to make 70,000 or more, if I go to law school then I want 6 figures</p>

Nice! :) I'm CampusCorps (stipended).</p>
<p>$100,000,000,000,000,000 - I am going to be an artist, good at drawing presidents, famous buildings, and signatures.</p>
<p>I'll make ~$40,000 as a RN out of school. With an advanced degree and experience that should get up to ~$80,000. I'd be very, very content with that.</p>
<p>I don't think some of these salaries (at least the ones which are serious) are too outrageous. It all really depends on what career you're looking to get into (or start off with really). I'm hoping for about $50,000. I came to that number based on an internship that's paying $4k a month. Assuming I stay they like me and make me an offer, and I like them and want to return, I'm guessing that's going to be around the starting salary. If not, I'll look at other similar jobs in the same field.</p>
<p>I’m thinking I will start off at least $37,000. I plan to get my MA too, so down the road that will help me immensely.</p>
<p>Durak1234, </p>
<p>Is that in Zimbabwe dollars?</p>
<p>Realistically, in 4 years when I graduate I should hopefully be looking at ~75K-80K if I’m an average student. It seems like some of the better students at MIT and such graduating in 4 years could reasonably make 100K+ after graduation.</p>
<p>If I make $35K, I’d be ecstatic.</p>
<p>What I expect to make will be around $50k a year with my major. What I want would obviously be a six figure salary…</p>
<p>ESL Educator - I expect to make $30-45K (depending on the district) when I graduate with my masters.</p>
<p>Conocophillips pays engineers 6 figures right out of college</p>
<p>listen guys although i support college and everything it offers, i must simply disagree here; everything that you all are worried about is crazy! you will make what you are capable of making. college wasnt my thing really, and i quit after the first quarter in my sophomore year… everybody thought i was done, i started my own company, at first a lot of work, and myself, and close friend were the only employees; ive been lucky enough that it has grown, i am the ceo and my close friend (who graduated college) is my cfo. I pull in around 1.2 million a year, and i never had any experience or formal degrees after college. moral is, just do what you can, and you will get what you deserve.</p>
<p>Anywhere between minimum wage and infinite.</p>
<p>i plan on gettin an MBA directly after undergrad so im looking to make minimum $100k out of grad school</p>
<p>perhaps its unrealistic but im a very goal oriented person</p>
