I'm assuming you are a lawyer, so your argument is complicated by the fact that your job contributes less to society than being a history teacher (in fact, it actually is a detriment to society and a drag on GDP)

But your point also applies to jobs that are actually beneficial to society–many wouldn't get done if they didn't pay well.

This doesn’t make any sense. The 100k guy works for 40 years and earns 4 million minus taxes. The 400k guy can earn the same amount in far less time, even after adjusting for cost of living differences between the two guys. So you can retire far sooner and therefore don’t have to “work 40 years of your life then die”

Why do we pay all the taxes for bullshit like Medicare. I’m literally making it possible for low IQ street trash to reproduce by working for a salary. Why don’t I get to determine what Medicare does with my money? If it were up to me it would be sterilization, not child delivery and care. This is just one example of the many ignominious things a wagecuck must endure for the privilege of earning a decent salary.

pay your additional Medicare tax goy

https://www.healthline.com/health/medicare/additional-medicare-tax#what-is-it

What does the Additional Medicare Tax pay for?

The Additional Medicare Tax helps to fund some elements of the Affordable Care Act. This includes the premium tax credit and other features. Notably, the Affordable Care Act provided some additional benefits to Medicare enrollees, including:

lower premiums for Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans

lower prescription drug costs

closure of the Part D benefit gap, or “donut hole”

inclusion of free vaccines

inclusion of free preventive care services

inclusion of free screenings for depression, heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers

increased chronic care management programs

the point is that you shouldn't be making $400k/year in the first place -- you're only making that much because of the same system that enables billionaires to do what they do. so when you say "but i paid for all this!" - it's beside the point. you shouldn't have a salary nearly that high to begin with, when so many others, who work just as hard, get so much less.

you should be killed alongside the billionaires you envy and despise.

Every increase in pay from 50k up to 500k goes entirely into rent or real estate. A job that pays $400k only pays that much because rent is higher in that area but otherwise the same job would pay 70k in are country and you would be able to afford the same 2BR apartment (or better) and otherwise live exactly the same but further from “the opera”. This is true for 99% of white collar wage slave jobs.

Proles that take minimum wage jobs in HCOL area are retarded and could make the same amount at the same job somewhere else and not be completely impoverished

I live in an expensive coastal city. I own a 2500 sqft 5 bdrm house there that I bought recently. My kids attend excellent schools and my neighborhood is full of millionaire boomers and high IQ strivers. I make 300k and wife doesn’t work and hasn’t since a couple years before the pandemic. If I made 400k I would be able to retire in my 50s when my kids finish college. As it stands I won’t get to 400k for probably at least 5 years and will work until I’m 60 and 401k withdrawals aren’t penalized.

I like where I live and my extended family lives here and so does wife’s so no. I should do my dumb easy job for 20 years and appreciate what I have. Point is 400k is a shitton of money although it’s a lot less if it’s paid to you as an associate/of counsel at a law firm than if you make it 50+% in equity that stands a decent chance to go up significantly over a multi year timeline.

When we moved a few years ago we said we’d check in after two years and if both of us and the kids hated it we’d leave. 9 months in it was like “thank God we did this.”

Technically the 5th bdrm is a big playroom/game room, and the 4th bdrm is smaller and we use it as an office. 3 real bedrooms are big bedrooms all 150+ sqft, huge kitchen with breakfast table and butler’s pantry, big family room. Living room and dining room are smaller and kind of combo’d but I much prefer that. Having a giant living room full of stuffy furniture that you never actually use is retarded boomer flame as is having some giant wall of China or whatever in your dining room. Also has a nice deck and glass doors off the back of the family room and the kitchen so it’s maximized for indoor/outdoor space and utility. We sold a 2400 sqft house to buy this one and it feels 1.5x the size.

Not for a family of 4. Lol if this is the new XO schtick that you have to have 3000 sqft to live. If we had two more kids, sure, but at this size of house layout/floor plan and being smart about maximizing the parts of the house you actually live in and use the most are the key.

In high COL places, $400k is typically the sweet spot of people who have worked their asses off their entire lives, bear the highest tax burden compared to their wealth and may not feel like they have much to show for it at the end of the day because they aren't able to save enough to retire early. People making less probably haven't had to deal with as much bullshit and people making more are on a path to financial freedom. Makes sense that they'd be frustrated.

$400k isn't much in many high QOL places. At $400k with CA taxes and a $2m house (which, is cheap for the area) you really are worried about money.

$400-500k is the sweet spot where you’re having trouble saving for a down payment because your COL is high. We are renting to a young family where they earn combined $500k but they’re spending $100k/year to rent. they’re prob saving $60-70k/year and they prob need another 5 years before they can comfortably afford to buy the shitbox they rent and buy then it’ll cost $2.5m so they might still be priced out.

You get to $700-800k you’re meaningfully saving a lot every year and over $1m you’re thinking early retirement.
