Yeah man don't be a sucker and settle for $120k a year which is the
most companies pay in NYC.
I was hesitant about leaving my safe secure full time job until I
realized how unsafe and insecure they are. Companies today will lay
you off at the drop of a stock point.
I'm never going back to W2.
Plus if you are near DC you can make big bucks consulting.
