[quote=AN][quote=flu]AN.. For some people, moving around companies works out for them. For other people it doesn’t. [/quote]
I understand where you’re coming from. Hind sight is always 20/20. The pay difference is only 5-10%, so the decision to not jump around doesn’t affect him as much as his decision to buy the house. So, even if guy A didn’t jump around like guy B, if guy A just listen to guy B’s reason why he doesn’t want to buy a house in 2005, he would have been much better off. One decision alone, not the most popular decision in 2005, would have put guy A in a much better financial situation. This bad luck (2005 RE crash) affected everyone who own a house, so it’s not like guy B was in the right place at the right time.[/quote]
Can’t win if you don’t play.
Not moving is basically not playing.
So unless you’re really aggressive about moving around in a large company, then not moving companies is basically a guaranteed non-winner.
