Rudey, are you talking about a promotion *specifically*, including the "title promotions" (where you take on more responsibility and/or a new title, but don't get more $ for it) or any form of promotion (e.g. bonus, pay raise, promotion, etc.)
To me it's not as much about the money from the job. My bonus has guaranteed minimum levels that rise every year and make up a large part of my compensation package.

I want a title change. It becomes useful if I jump ship to another firm to have a higher title and also if I go back to school, I can deduct my school costs from my taxes if I have a higher title because the IRS has a weird system set up and the last thing I'm going to do is give all my money to those goons.

It's very rare to get one before 2-3 years so I am pushing it but how can it hurt? Nobody can hate me for being ambitious, right?
