I’ve done this as well. I’m only making twice what I was 30 years ago at 18. (Though to be fair, I was making a ridiculous amount of money for a 18 year old - my first job was in the Qwest network operations center.)

If you are in the US, you also have to incorporate the employer paid benefits in compensation, the big one being health insurance premiums/deductible/out of pocket maximum/provider network size (the premium is easily referred to by looking at W-2 box 12 code DD).

There are also other considerations such as PTO, 401k match, HSA match, DCFSA match, yadda yadda, so the only way to keep up with the market is to always be interviewing and evaluating new offers to compare your current compensation to.
