This is how much money workers want to change jobs

As millions of U.S. workers quit their jobs in search of better pay, a trend known as the Great Resignation, new research offers a sense of how much people are looking to earn before they make the leap.

The magic number? Individuals want annual pay of at least $73,000 to leave their current position for a new one, according to a recent survey from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. That's up from $68,954 in 2021. 

Increased salary expectations were most pronounced among younger employees, male workers and college graduates, according to the survey of more than 1,000 people, which included employed and unemployed respondents.
