Y'all are legit. What do you do/ what are your education levels? I'm sitting at $62k...23 years old and work in corp finance...I want to hit 6 figs before I'm 30 but also don't want to hate my life like i currently do. Do you enjoy your work? How many hours do you put in a week?
My title is project manager but i generally do everything virtualization related for a very large customer, so i spend 80 percent of my time being an administrator. The only time i really do the project management part, is when we have a super serious customer who has their contract worded with us in a way that says "fukk this up and we will sue your ass"
...then everyone is like "we need to get the PM involved 
I tend to only work 40 hours a week, typical 9 to 5, but i do have projects that i have to end up doing because no one else knows how, like tonight, i been working on some shyt since 6:00 am yesterday.
I guess I like my job, I like virtualization though. Truth is, I would rather write science fiction books, so as soon as I wrap mine up and get it published I might quit...all the money as to do is be close... say i get paid 70 k and above to write ( a longshot i know...but that is what it would take to make me write full time )
I got a degree in Information Systems from a typical 4 year university. Nothing special. I don't know enough about the finance world to know if you can make it to a 100k by 30

I have a B.S. in Management and Information Systems. I'm a Project Analyst at an Investment Company. My goal is to get my Project Management Certification before this year is up; aggressively before Summer 2013 and that will boost my pay significantly.
I can't say that I enjoy my work, but the money is "easy", if that makes sense. If things go well, In about 3 years I should have enough money invested and an emergency fund for me to leave Corporate America and be financially comfortable. So I'm just dealing for now.

What is virtualization and how did you get into it?

Virtualization physical servers using vmware products like vsphere or microsofts products like hyper v or server farming using citrix. I use to work at HP and there was a very large initiative to virtualize a large part of all the corporate servers, as well as HP cooking up their own virtualization application ( mostly failed ). Everyone I worked with saw how bad it was and ran away from it, and me being the new guy at the time I got stuck with it. After learning what to do and getting a couple of certifications, here i am today, doing basically the same thing but for more money
It is a hard field to get in because a company is not going to trust you with it without prior experience at it, but you can make a lot of money doing it because the certifications you need to get are pretty difficult, cost a lot ( you have to take a class to get your vcp and it can range anywhere from a few 100 taught as a college course or 5,000 if you take the 1 week online course), so the market is pretty small. Once you get in, it is pretty much a breeze, it's just really hard to get in.

I went to an Ivy so I had opportunities readily available to me on campus. I have a degree in Computer Science. I enjoy my work. The company is relatively small and we finance a lot of start-ups which shall go unnamed. I put in 80 plus hours a week, mostly in research.
Yall always fall for the Malcolm thread traps
