I think once I hit a 75k salary, I'll be able to fall back and chill

And how are you going to do that? True shyt, a really good friend of mine just told me he makes 93k now working for the government. He started off at like 60k, and this was a year after he graduated undergrad. I got jealous as hell when he told me. I knew he was making around at least 70, but I was surprised as hell when he told me in just 5 years he was now making 93k. Good god. It'll take me awhile to get to that, even with going to grad school and everything.
I'm done school and shyt.

I just need 2 to 3 years exerperiece.

I'll probably be at 75k in 3 years

75k ain't that much once u get to it :yeshrug:
Its good for my lifestyle

That's more than 2 racks a check....plus my debt is very minimal :ohlawd:

I can eat good with that :eat:

I'm a frugal nikka and I got everything I already want so I don't need much....more than 75k and I'd have to be a VP and I value my free time more than titles and money

My hommie got a job that pays $102,000 a year and dude borrows money from me cus he sucks at saving.

Your life will get more complicated
My life won't ... I ain't ya homie.

I live within my means and I only buy games and spend the rest on experiences :ahh:

Scust at making 102 and having to borrow

That will never be me...I'm too smart for that

Ever hear of the hedonic treadmill?
A lot of people believe x amount of dollars will satisfy their quest for happiness when in reality, more often than not, your expectations and desires will also rise to meet your income.
The happiness lasts for a brief period and then you're back in the rat race. Essentially, our happiness is always stagnant.
We think we need this or that to be truly happy, but once we obtain it, we simply fill the void with something else.
Instead of 75k it's 90k.
Instead of a BMW it's a Mercedes.
Instead of a 1600 sqft home it's 2400.
Humans are a weird bunch.
I grew up in an affluent, upper middle class suburb and it was always wild to hear my folks discussing neighbors who complain about 90k+ salaries.
Neighbors bringing in 120k+ foreclosing on homes due to terrible investments and frivolous spending in an attempt to keep up with the Jones'.
As salary increases, so does our cost of living - generally speaking. I don't think many people will ever be truly satisfied.

I make 75...it's good money, but I'm in a load of debt. Learn to buy with out credit and you'll be good. I'm paying for for past indiscretions.

Personally I won't stop until I make 100, and even then I'm just going to invest in a small business. I need multiple revenue streams and no debt to truly be free.

If you are debt free you can do a lot with 75 k.

Im focusing on being debt free, im in engineering so the money comes (and will come) automatically.

Doesn't mean shyt if you cant manage it. Trying to cut expenses every year while making more.
