[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First world problem for sure. Lighten up (or get an ulcer or TMJ or an immune disorder worrying about it) ... Up to you. Put it this way-- when the kids are done with college which you paid for, and after you enjoy some retirement which you paid for, are you going to lay on your deathbed fretting that your available bank balance is too low? [/quote] That last sentence. It's exactly what made me leave Goldman Sachs and pursue a less affluent career. I made more at 22 than I do now at 32. It was a realization that I'd never sit on my deathbed and say "Gosh, of I'd just retired with $20M instead of $5M ... Then that would have done it." Don't get me wrong, I'd never advocate leaving a high end career for $30k a year, but at a certain point, it kind of stops mattering, provided you can get past the neighbor having the tesla while you have a Kia.
