Fighting Misinformation: When is 6 Figures Not Really 6 Figures?

Do you want to make six figures? Before you take advice from someone, make sure they are really where you want to be. Numbers (and people) can be misleading. Technically, I can say that I run a multi-six-figure business. What about after my business expenses? What is my take-home pay? What is it after taxes? All important context.
