[quote=Anonymous]Financial coup -- living slightly below my means the entire time I've been a professional. It really opens up your options and makes you less nervous in an unstable economy, if/when job volatility hits - which it typically does at some point in the private sector. I'm not suggesting that you have to work hard and then deprive yourself all the fruits of that labor and be eating Ramen every night, driving a moped, and never going out and doing anything fun. But I don't understand why it's impossible for people who make 250k but live as if they're making 200k or 180k and just save the rest for a rainy day -- it's not like you'd be living an uncomfortable lifestyle.[/quote]
