Do you fell that you’ve made it? I’ve had three great years. Made great money, but it just stresses me out that it’s all going to end soon. Like the work will end, lose a client, etc. won’t be able to sustain my fam’s current lifestyle.

Not possible for a lifetime striver, bro. We didn’t expand our lifestyle. House is paid off—375k purchase price in 2010. We’ve been saving a couple 100k per year for years. And our income recently increased from 600 to almost a million when I made partner but I still stress about our position in life etc. nature of the assignment.

I find this really disgusting. I have a few LS friends that are the same way. They all make like 800-1M all-in per year and have for a few years, so literally each of them could just walk in tomorrow and quit and never work again. But like if one of them gets promoted or buys something expensive the others screech like toddlers with jealousy. Fuck people who can't appreciate what they have and be happy for their friends' success.

Third homes, boats, also doing shit like taking two nannies on a vacation with them. It's hilarious because they're all from UMC striver families so they're all completely obvious new money. Like they don't dress well or have any rich dude hobbies. When they do stuff like golf they're always the guys pounding beers and badly hitting on the drink cart girls--this is why they're my friends and I still like them. But they should take that DGAF drink cart attitude and apply it more broadly. I have no doubt that they are all awful to work with and if I had to work for them I would fucking hate them.

No this is 100% the truth. They know how to dress up when they have to for work, but on the weekends they are 100% t shirt and jeans or maybe a ratty old polo they've had for 10+ years at most. None of them are in MFH, and they don't look super dressed down or prole compared to most UMC people in their respective towns on the weekends (well, except the one in DC who definitely does).

This question is more tied to job security and knowing that you can maintain the same income level for life than an absolute amount of money.

I felt like I made it a few years ago when I realized that I had enough experience that I don’t have to worry about job security.

So I just need a net worth of about $3mm, which isn't going to happen anytime soon.

Making increasingly more money as a wage cuck feels awful. Taxes destroy you, lifestyle improvements are negligible aside from being able to afford a nicer place. The issue is then, if you splurge on housing in a major city, where most of these salaries exist, then you neutralize all your ability to actually get ahead and develop equity that will let you escape the rat race.

We're at just shy of 300k when you add up all sources and feel almost paycheck to paycheck and not financially responsible at all, even though I'm saving almost a third of my take-home pay if you count principal on our mortgage, and still +25% if you don't. And I'm in are country, though it's not as low COL as it could be. In three years I should have a 2.5k smaller monthly nut and hopefully make at least 50k more, and if I can maintain that for 10 years I will feel like I've made it and can relax, but by that time I will be staring down retirement and death. If my megacorp has big problems/starts cutting a lot at any point in the next 5 years and/or I don't get promoted, then it's probably a better than 50/50 I will get pwn3d, so that's my main source of anxiety.

I admit this is dumb. If I didn't have kids I wouldn't be nearly as dumb about it. And if I didn't have a wife I would have quit law years ago.
