Six figures means a number with six digits, i.e., between 100,000 and 999,999. In money terms that’s:

  • $100,000 up to $999,999 (inclusive).

Quick examples:

  • $100,000 — the smallest six‑figure amount.
  • $250,000 — mid-range six figures.
  • $999,999 — the largest six‑figure amount (one dollar short of seven figures).

Notes and common uses:

  • When people say “making six figures,” they usually mean annual income between $100,000 and $999,999. Most often it refers to the lower part of that range (e.g., $100k–$250k) in everyday conversation.
  • “Six figures” can describe salaries, prizes, business revenue, or net worth; context matters (annual vs. one‑time amounts).
  • Different countries use different currencies, so replace “$” with the local currency symbol or name (e.g., £100,000, €100,000).
