    Why would you tell women what you make?

    I make well into 6 figures but I feel like advertising that while dating is a recipe for failure

      That’s exactly why I start every conversation by telling women I’m homeless.

      Kidding aside, I agree that you should talk financials after a time but if they’re asking super early about how much you make, that’s a red flag.

      I kinda hate to be like this, but if you are in a tech position, past the early entry level nonsense, and not making six figures (in the US) then you need to be job hunting.

      I don’t know if any particular certification will get you there, but IT remains a great practical field to be in. Don’t make any sort of “I’m just in this for the money” apologies.
