What do you consider a comfortable salary to be?

maybe it's just me but i don't think i'll ever be "comfortable." the more i make the more i want, so i'll never have that feeling of, "oh this will do." i'm always going to be restless and searching for more.

This is probably the truest shyt for real. when I started my job at 25K I said that I was close to living comfortable. When I made 50K said the same thing. Passed 75 and still keeping saying let me make an extra 10 a year and I'll be comfortable and saving all kinds of money. Did that and still wanting to make more.

who the fuk you know that takes a private jet to their summer home in costa rica. I swear some of you dudes is watching to much tv

Like I said, when you're around rich people, it let's you see how different people live. This chick I met before moving from Cincinnati uncle was a big time marketing exec. Black dude, graduated from Yale, has houses all over the place, and is part owner of the Cincinnati Reds baseball team. She showed me pictures of this dudes chilling with President Bush like it's nothing. I though that shyt was photoshopped when i first saw it. Every time I talk to her she's like he just flew into copenhagen or he's been in belguim for the last 3 months. He's a legit black republican, stupid bread.

My ex-gf uncle (or maybe uncle in law can't remember) was CFO of citibank, or chase or some shyt back in the day. Dude is retired and collects Ferari's.

:rudy:
You been listening to too much Rick Ross.

.....y'all are acting like rich people don't exist. One of my friends live in this big ass mansion by himself. I remember the first time I walked in I was like :ohhh:

Dude's living room is bigger than my whole apartment :sadbron:

Everyone's definition is different breh. Once you around someone with real paper you'll realize there's two different versions of comfort. So for you paying your bills and being able to buy a ps3 game when you want is cool. for others its private jets to their summer villa in Costa rica

I just wanna have enough money to pay for backpage hoes :smugfavre:

A lot of truth here. I'll take some pictures of that, this summer....

Right now 55k+ sounds pretty sweet, but ideally...300K+

I like to do whatever the hell I want at the drop of a dime so I need a decent amount of money for that. Also, like Bdizzle is saying when you've been around people who have guap it changes your perspective on money. The rich got a totally different lifestyle mane...and I'm quite partial to it.

Going to the club VIP used to be my idea of a great time. Now, a trip to Paris on a private jet with my people is my idea of a good time. It's the lifestyle man, the lifestyle...

Rich and comfortable are two different things, and someone who takes private jets to villas in Costa Rica is a little beyond just "comfortable".

You keep talking about what other people have as well, once you get caught up in comparing lifestyles you will never be happy.

yeah i feel if you're just focusing on making money; it will never be enough. i'm happy with what i make now outside of all the money uncle sam takes from me; but outside of that i'm comfortable. Maybe once i get married and have kids my mindset will change

What part of everyone's definition of comfortable is different don't you understand?

I only respect the opinions of people who make more than me.

You're probably possessed by a broke demon :sitdown:

Exactly. its like when you was younger, some Jordan's and $20 in your pocket had you feel like you were Scrooge mcduck. Now $20 is barely half a tank of gas in your 92 ford escort :sadbron:

My household income is north of $200k currently.....and it's still not enough.....that's just sad, but it's the truth because it's never enough. The more you make, the better your taste gets, and the more that shyt ends up costing. It's just a vicious cycle. Real talk..

and When you get to that 75K you're going to want more esp because your spending habits will change.. You'll be on some " I deserve it " type of stuff.

Man fukk that...if im making less than 6 figures by the time i hit 30 then ill consider myself a failure (im 23 now).

Comfortable to me is making at least 20K a week....but ill settle for 10K a week to begin with. This isnt some fantasy to me because i grew up with motherfukkers making 80K a month at 21 just off affiliate marketing.

My best friend's dad just bought a 20 million dollar home in chateu elan....their last house was a 12 million dollar house in chateu elan..

my little sisters god father owns 500 acres in tampa that he uses strictly for hunting. thats on top of his plane and his fishing boat

So all my life ive been fortunate to be surrounded by wealth, and ive learned a lot from them. if you cant make 100k a year in america at some point in your life, then your doing it wrong

but thats just me
This may be the dumbest post I've ever read.

Really amazing how materialistic people can be. So sad, you can't take none of that shyt with you when you die.
