Strong endorse. Also, virtually regardless of your circumstances, the number you perceive as your need is low relative to achievable options in our industry, so you can end up capping yourself for no reason whatsoever.
e.g. Want to pay for a parent’s retirement? Trivial on an AppAmaGooBookSoft salary at the bottom of their ranges, so given that they have just saved your parent, why (they ask themselves) would they need to sweeten the deal further?
But the real reason to avoid doing this is that professionals are not needy people and therefore if you trigger someone’s “I am clearly talking to a needy person” heuristic you risk getting treated as a charity case rather than as a professional.
