[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I make $120k I loved in a 2k sq ft home. And 15 years later when I made close to $400k I still liver in the same house. My house is cheap and functional, but extremely well maintained with high quality materials.

Some of you are really fancy 8k sq ft homes damn lol[/quote]

400K is 200K from 15 years ago. in 2010 after financial crisis 200K was a big salary. [/quote]
Ya $200K is poverty money here these days, $400K is a modest living.

I pull around $5M AAV between salary, bonus, stock options, family money, passive investment and rental income and a few other miscellaneous streams so I can speak to OP.

It’s hard. I’m used to living large. I remember living in a shack of a 2K sq Ft colonial fresh out of college, moved “up” to a 4K sq ft home in Potomac and then moved from modest UMC Potomac to firmly UC Potomac to a 9k sq ft mansion. Finally thinking about downsizing ourselves but thinking of what to do with all our stuff is extremely stressful. Will obviously hire help but they can only do so much for me. [/quote]
