Is it fine to ask for a raise after 6 months of starting?

[Smurfy]

Of course, but fight for it does not mean ask for more money after 6 fucking months. If somebody did that to me I'd laugh at them and tell em to fuck themselves right in the asshole area. There are ways to fight for more money without looking like a complete donkey.

lol KB had such an eloquent way with words

don't even consider it before a year. I would as I did many times tell staff that. You haven't earned a higher wage yet even if you have. An employer must feel that you will continue to be the best for his company when you become invaluable you will have much more leverage and 6 months is not enough leverage. You barely know the workings of the company to this point. You may know your job now but the first month or so was a learning experience and the cost to the employer in the first couple months is a net loss.

shiiiiiiit.... a net loss?? Are you kidding me? I'm doing everything everyone else does at 50% the compensation. They're making money and able to expand to more projects with me on board.
