Keeping in mind of those 342 people probably only a few of them have any education past college. Say what you want about bleeding green and being brainwashed those numbers are true. If you think making VP or higher is impossible how many people at ERAC make six figures relative to any other company. Its not perfect but if you work hard, have the right set of skills and the willingness to move anywhere oppurtunity is you can make it and if you dont then you can get one of the wonderful jobs everyone on here gets after they leave.
I question how many of them are "millionaires". They have to pay state and federal income taxes on that income and then not spend it all in a seriously upgraded consumer lifestyle. I'll bet there's a tremendous amount of competitive house/car/TV/vacation/clothes buying and I doubt many of them have actually saved $1,000,000 after taxes.

For example, even if you're earning $200K per year, after taxes you take home more like $100K per year, so even if you saved half of your take home pay (impossible for most Americans), it could take you 20 years to save a million dollars.
