[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have never talked about salaries, ever. I get that it’s possible that a friend is secretly struggling or secretly extremely rich, but in the case of our friends, it seems unlikely. Everyone’s job title/industry/education[b] kind of clicks exactly with their home/cars/lifestyle[/b]. I started my career later than many of my friends, and when I got my first FT salaried job I began to notice how infrequently work came up in conversation once it was a big part of my life. Like no one ever said, man I got a shitty review or yay I got a bonus. [/quote]

That is true for the spenders, but not the savers. In my group people might think I am just doing ok if you look at those things, but what they don't know is how I save and how much I have in my investment accounts.

I just assume everyone is a saver. If they also have expensive things, it’s because they have a f*ck ton of money.

It’s nicer to assume that and give people the benefit of he doubt than vice versa.[/quote]
