I just more than doubled my annual income today. I was offered a position as a municipal bond trader. I jumped all over it as if it was a busty redhead with a few beers in her. It's variable...you get a commission based on the volume of business that your desk does at work, but I have a guaranteed minimum salary (even that is more than I'm making now) if things go really south. But the average salary for this position has been pretty lucrative in past years. I am friggin over the moon.

I am having my celebratory steak and beers in our newly built home that we just moved into two weeks ago. To paraphrase from The Simpsons: "Everything's coming up Mookie!"

That is great news. Glad to hear it. Hard work pays off. There has been plenty of threads discussing that fact. Start doubling your 401k contributions.
