[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because there is always a bigger fish. And most people will be looking up and comparing themselves to them. We make $700K. I do not consider myself rich or wealthy because there are big law partners making $3M a year. To me, those guys are wealthy and we're just small fry. It's how it works. [/quote] Bizarre you don't think you are rich.[/quote] I think the sentiment is true for many folks - and in many aspects of their lives. When I made $65K, I thought $200K was a ton of money. When I got to $200K, $400K was a lot. At $500-600, $1M seems to be doing alright. The point is that the goal post will always keep moving. this is true in finance, athletics, business, or any area of competition. We move the bar forward. And I'm not competing with any one else per se. Just myself. And in this area chockablock full of type As, that mentality may be the norm. [/quote]
