Revealing my BANKER SALARY for the first time

📢STARTING NOV 22nd: Sign up to my FREE Making Money Workshop: nischa.me/makingmoneyworkshop I hope this encourages you to negotiate, get paid your worth and not be afraid to move if it comes down to it

“Loyalty is great but only when it’s rewarded” 🏆

Being this transparent and vulnerable is so difficult, and yet it's such a gift to those of us watching. Thank you for doing this, Nischa <3

“You don’t get paid your worth, you get paid your ability to negotiate” 👏 saving this to my notes because it’s articulated what I’ve learned over a similar time frame in a similar field, both professionally and personally. I appreciate your candour and for curating a very special area of the internet 💙

The generation before us taught us that you absolutely NEVER discuss salary because it's in poor taste.... and that is why so many people have no idea what they should be making. Having conversations with co-workers about what they make has been life changing for me. Nischa, thank you so much for this. It needs to be normalized discussion. You're fantastic and I love your content. :-)

This is such an excellent advice! And I love that you’re transparent with your experiences. I work at a bank as well and see first hand how switching organizations can bump your salary significantly. Although I’ve had opportunities to switch and probably make more, I’ve stuck with my bank for reasons other than money (work life balance and career progression, among others). Another advice I would give is never stop learning and enhancing your skill set. Great video as always!

First off, THANK YOU. I agree that being transparent about how much we are being paid for our labor (intellectual or physical) is crucial to not being taken advantage of. I, too, didn't learn to advocate for myself or even simply negotiate my job offers. I feel you about having your all your financials out there. That is really difficult thing to do. Have been enjoying the channel and advice. Thank you again!

As someone who works in the Front Office in investment banking in Lon this was very refreshing to see. No one likes talking about the numbers of their salaries yet it’s what we complain about the most. Thank you for being brave, very informative- I’m forwarding this to colleagues.

I stayed with my last company for 18 years and it was a constant battle to be paid fairly. Despite being one of the most experienced team members I often learnt new starters were paid more then me and I had to train them! My advice to anyone now is to talk to your colleagues about salaries to ensure you’re paid in line with them and move jobs, it’s by far the best way to earn more and of course gain more experience. Regardless of how many times a company or manager tells you you’re valuable, an asset and all that fluffy rubbish, in reality you are a number on a balance sheet (a cost), and they’ll shaft you if they can.

Transparency is wonderful and we appreciate the content you are creating. The car videos are eye-opening.

Thanks for making this video. Transparency earns you a lot of trust, believe me. A lot of channels on YouTube speak in broad terms and the public is left wondering if they are not exaggerating or straight up lying.

I really love your channel and love how transparent you, we need more people like you. I would love to be making what your making, but you have put in the hard work and deserve it! Well done! I really hope you continue to succeed in your line of work and youtube and the other side hustles you have. Such a great inspiration to the nation of workers wanting better for themselves :)

I dont even work in finance, but you are honestly such an inspiration. I love how you explain in simple terms and you are motivating me to make better choices

This channel is a gold mine!

I really applaud this video Nischa! I am currently an executive at a FTSE 100 company and I am in complete agreement that pay transparency is a systemic problem in the workplace. Also, I love the point about moving companies where you are undervalued. I think new job anxiety coupled with imposter syndrome is the main barrier to individuals achieving rapid career progression. Would love to chat about this if you have availability and are agreeable. Regardless, your channel is fantastic - please keep up the fantastic work!

Dear Nischa, it is so refreshing to hear a woman talk about money in a positive, knowledgeable and confident manner. You are contributing to removing the taboo that surrounds money and the desire to make more. Thank you! A fan in Canada.

Love this!! The most real video I’ve seen for a very long time. As a society, we’re taught to not talk about “money” like it’s a taboo subject. Thank you for educating us! You’re a true inspiration

Thank you for sharing something so personal and doing so in a mature and dignified manner. In a future video it would be great to see you discuss approaches to salary negotiation both in the context of remaining in a role and when moving roles/companies.

I think you did a great job here! We can tell it wasn't easy for you to put this content out, but you are helping so many people realise their worth! May your channel continue to thrive 🙏🏽

Nischa, I am a recent subscriber and want to say thank you for your honesty, transparency, and vulnerability with opening up about your salary in addition to making ok to move from one organization to another if you are not being paid your worth. I would definitely appreciate more of these types of videos in addition to your other content, I find it to be incredibly helpful! Thank you again for the amazing content, I truly appreciate it! 😊
