This is the story of how i gave the worst response of all time during salary negotiations at my first software engineering job. At the time, this amount was completely life changing and never in my wildest dream would I have ever imagined making this type of salary. Even so, i think I have a great lesson here on how NOT to lowball yourself. A side note, I might have also been the lowest paid senior software engineer in the whole bay area at the time.

about me:
My name is Jeff, I grew up in lower class as an Asian American and got bad grades my whole life. I found my path to real estate investing (2m+ in properties) and have a successful day job as a Lead Software Engineer all before 30. My goal is to share what I've learned in my 20s that helped me become who I am today. no sales, no tricks, no games. Just pure advice from someone thats seen both the bottom and the top in this modern world.
