As a younger person (24) I make less than 1/3 what some of the people older than me make In my same role so hear me out. The pay scale starts mid range when you begin work between 20-23 and peaks for the middle years where you are still very physically plane mentally fit years between 30-45/50ish after that you should be able to retire. If you choose not to your pay rate begins decreasing as age. Am I crazy because I’m on the younger end of this?
