Comment on Ask HN: how can I practice negotiation?parent

Comments

You seem to think that a negotiation requires an exchange of money. Nothing could be further from the truth. The dictionary that comes with mac dashboard defines negotiation thusly:

   negotiation |nəˌgō sh ēˈā sh ən|
   noun (also negotiations)
   discussion aimed at reaching an agreement
There is very little difference in negotiating a salary and negotiating a romantic relationship at the end of the day. You try to reach an amicable agreement that both parties can live with. The reason I recommended a bar/public venue is that you can get way more practice there than waiting for your next salary offer.
