30 is not straight out of college. You've had a few years gaining experience and working in the field.

I generalized so as to not seem like bragging. I was 26. I had 4 years of experience in the field, but it was all operational. The big money came with switching to drilling horizontal wells at 26. $100k in the 70's and 80's was big money for snot nosed greenhorns.
Get it wrong...and you know....
