Haven’t read the article but I’m guessing her point has something to do with white people having access to wealth via their family, parents, etc… and most black people don’t come from that
Either way if you can’t figure out how to make 125K work for you, you probably have poor spending habits and need to reevaluate your blah blah blah
You must live in super flyover country because it is well documented that thousands of Silicon Valley tech workers making low six figures are homeless living out of their cars.
If you making low six figs, chances are you have student loan debt. And places that pay six figures like its nothing are expensive ass areas like NYC, DC and the Bay.
And cacs are making mid six figs in NYC like its nothing doing the minimal amount if work.
Low six figs is what 45k a year was in the 90's. Y'all talk about low six figs like its financial independence or some shyt. When making that income range just signs you up for more credit and indentured servitude. Rappers ain't talk about six figs aspirationally since like 96'. But browsing the Coli you would think it was a rapper lifestyle.
Low six figs ain't hard to make if you willing to slave 60-70+ hours a week. UPS drivers make that much. Used car salesmen too. Even door to door salesmen who push hard enough make that much selling roofs and shyt to old ladies. And that's without a degree or a cert.
But not everyone want to skip out on watching their kids grow up or not have a life. Cacs making low six figs in their sleep doing fake jobs made up for white people and still got help from rich parents and relatives.
I'm more impressed with brehs thinking outside the box. Like breh who made 300k a year off vending machines. You'll never get rich working for somebody else.
