$60-$90k?

This must be a really old study.

I do agree that respect plays a great role in deciding to work for someone.

There is nothing more agonizing than watching the idiots at the helm without being able to do anything about it.

It's not an old study. It's from 2017. And rememebr that the median household income in the US is $67,000 per year (in 2020) and £31,400 in the UK (in 2021). If you earn more than $90,000 you are typicallyu in the top third of the income distribution of a developed country.

People probably enjoy raises more than their salary. All happiness is in the first derivative.

Not really. There are plenty of studies that the joy of a raise disappears after a couple of months. What is a raise very quickly becomes just another salary.
