[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try not to let lifestyle creep take over. Save aggressively for a few years, and build up a 6 month emergency fund. I think then you will feel more comfortable. - a former fed ($125k) who has a $500k/yr job and felt this way at first [/quote] 1000% this! Live like you haven't seen the increase. Only allow 10-15% "lifestyle creep" for a few years and save save save (invest invest invest). That will give you time to adjust and build savings. Hint: you never need to let "lifestyle creep" take over to 100% of your new income. You were fine living before, you don't need to spend it all now [/quote]
