You make more within the same field often times with an advanced degree but a lot of things (business owner, engineer, etc) don’t really require advanced degrees and can often times pay extremely well.
Like take tech. If you’re a good software engineer and you don’t work in research, having a graduate degree is kinda pointless. You’re not going to be a better engineer for it. Yet you can make a lot of money with just a bachelors and sometimes not even a degree. It’s all contextual.

Reply to comment by gutterbrain73 in Same dog has bit my dog 2 times in the last 6 months by Plenty_Library2183
Most dogs will bite through fear/aggression, which could get worse by pepper spraying even if the dog runs away after you were to spray it. Pepper spraying the dog won’t stop it from happening repeatedly-the owner needs to stop being shitty.
If they’ve already gotten someone to come out and give a warning that’s more than I’d have expected. I’d asked the animal control to follow up on the warning with a fine.

Seconding this. There are a lot of nonprofits in the DC area.

If your ANC Commissioner is the kind that soothes tensions, ask them to visit that house and let them know about leash laws.

Call animal control every single time you see the dog off a leash and remind them each time that the dog is aggressive and has already bitten your dog twice but continues to be let loose. I’d ask other dog owners and neighbors if they have had issues and encourage them to call too if they have.

I would believe it.
I know people who have PhDs that aren't even hitting 70k in the non-profit sector.

Well, this makes me feel a bit inadequate lol. I'm definitely on the younger side (27) and only have a bach and a cert, but I'm making a bit over $60k.... which is obviously quite below the mean of $94k for individual earners.

Not a surprise. While an increase in education usually has a direct correlation with a higher salary, it’s all about supply and demand. DC needs skilled labor and jobs with clearances (which doesn’t always need a graduate degree). There isn’t much demand for master degree jobs in this area. Plus there is plenty of supply of those who have them here.
