[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, if you ever want to feel like a failure just come read the message boards. So many people in their 40s making 7 figures.[/quote] It’s mostly the same few people that hang around here to brag over and over about their seven-figure salaries. And of course, let’s not forget about the liars as well. Also, in my experience, the “massive income growth in your 30s so you should stretch on housing” narrative is exaggerated here on DCUM. Beyond inflation, I’ve experienced zero income growth between age 31 and now age 41. (This omits my rental income since investment income does naturally grow over time with as your net worth increases.) But I do make around $150K now, which is perfectly respectable. The idea that someone making $150K today can plan on making $300-$350K in a decade is not realistic – there are just not that many $300,000+ jobs out there.[/quote]
