The bidding wars for talent weren't as pronounced here in Houston as they were in other parts of the country, I'm sure, but at the same time, I knew some young professionals who made out like bandits. They were able to earn double what they had been making -- basically "skipping over" 10 or more years of hard work to get to that salary level. For them, a great situation. But we lost some good folks because we simply couldn't compete. Great advice, Todd.
