and by the way ...how old are you ..and what skills do you have ...and more importantly... how long do you think your employer is going to think you are valuable?....please don't lecture me... i have been on both sides of the "management" and "labor" arguements. i have alot more experience in both of these positions and i realize what has taken place over the last 3 decades, and i am sour to what has happened in our corporate enviorment as it pertains to employees.

A vile and aggressive behavior, poor grammar, and little to no recognizable education are my guesses as to why your income isn't where you'd like it.
My father earns well into six-figures a year. He's received multiple degrees from Boston University, Lehigh, and Yale School of Management. We'd had to move quite a bit as a child, but, money is money. And how he directed his life and what he received for it is an indication that that particular theory works well. Some of you may even recognize his name if you heard it!
I'm following the same path, and while I doubt employers will be so giddy to assign me a place given the current state of the economy, I've all-ready begun to receive 'invitations' after my college years are over.
Something to consider.
I think you should also consider something. Maybe your father's money has something to do with "who" he knows more than what he knows. Maybe that is why you are being approach as it is now.
I myself am a graduate from a non ivy league school. I am hard working and have a very good job. But there is something else I realize the older I get and the higher I try to reach.
I will never rise above my station because I lack the "wink wink" "nudge nudge" I know you you know me that persists in our society today. The upper echelon in business culture is and will become an almost exclusive society amongst themselves. They have as little in common with the middle class as a Lion has with a cat. Oh they both come from the same species they just view each other that much differently.

One question for you:
What would you say to the poor kid that can't get into Dartmouth, because his parents have nothing (if he's luck enough to have both of them), lives in a one bedroom apartment in city high rise, goes to a completely underfunded high school that can't attract or afford inspiring and competent teachers, has to worry about violence in many of his travels to and from different locations, and has to work forty hours a week to help his family make ends meet?
What would you say to him about motivation? About opportunity?
