Honestly, I live in NY so my salary is good but if I go off the rails, I'd be in some shyt

Luckily, I'm a simple dude. I don't need designer shyt.

I just need a gym, fitted clothes, a few amenities and hobbies I pay for and provide for my fam.

Plus, when youbare making a certain amount, many of your peers are as well so you don't feel abnormal.

Since I have never been a "stunt on them" type, when I go around family and friends who aren't doing as well, I'm very cognizant of that and I behave appropriately.

Tell me more about this Soho House, they throw networking events?


It’s a private social club

It’s all for networking and their events are legendary

It’s a good look being a member. Imagine bringing you shorty on a date there and having all the staff know your first name

Sometimes I forget the coli ain't real life....

If you think 75k ain't shyt you should consider moving to "fly over country"

Down south 75k will get you everything you need and a decent amount of what you want.

Hell $17.00/hr will have the females:leon:

I thought I was tripping out reading that $75K isnt that much. But some of you must live in New York, California, Hawaii, etc. I live in Georgia $75K would be good. I would want more of course but I drive a Honda, I dont buy expensive clothes, I dont like jewelry, dont really drink. If I was rich you wouldnt know it unless you see my house. Other than that I will still drive my Honda, shop at Target, have good ass health insurance and be on the whole holistic thing, cooking my own vegetarian food, making my own skin & hair care products & my credit score will be in 700+.

But look at Tyrese he was making $105,000 but was spending $107,000. Crying about child support and the Fast & Furious movie.

As for family I will only consistently help my parents and my brother and even that has limits. The good thing about me is that I've seen so many people around me go in debt trying to helo out other people. So refuse to get like that myself. And I watch those American Greed type shoes, Dateline, lottery curse specials about people going broke or being killed by jealous people.

I can name a few relatives who would try to rob or kill me for money. Especially since I'm in computer programming so its realistic that I would make $75K or more. There are way too many people who dont want to be successful themselves but they just want to leech off others success. My mom is one of the those help everybody out people, giving people rides but not taking gas money, buying relatives kids school supplies. My dad & I try to tell her its a lost cause because she is not benefitting from helping these people. But she doesnt listen. I think she feels obligated to help others out because she is the only one in the family who went to college (mothers side). She fukked up her credit help out people but hasnt learned her lesson yet. I told her people feel entitled since she gives so much that at some point they will stop asking. She has credit cards to different stores and she lets people get stuff on her card. Its annoying.
