[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I make a lot more than that. But it’s a good income. People on this site get carried away and I think a lot exaggerate. Income is also just one side of the ledger. I know a lot of people making my income and more who have 200k+ of student loan debt at 7-8% interest for the next 15 years. Plus people also consume a lot and buy cars and houses that leave them with less flexibility At 220k you make enough to have flexibility if you spend carefully. So, I wouldn’t worry about how much others are making and spending, but rather how much flexibility your current income affords you now and in the future.[/quote] This. Your mortgage and other costs matter a lot. Big difference between someone looking to buy their first home, $250K net worth, and paying for daycare or a nanny vs. someone who owns a $1.5M home that they bought for $750K back in the day with a 3% mortgage, $5M net worth, and kids in great public schools.
