Average frumpy midwit strivers from large public universities who "fell into it". Many try to seek out a more prestigious university for their MBA because they're painfully insecure about their degree mill BA. No kid goes to college dreaming of becoming a consultant, let alone a consultant at freakin' Deloitte.[/quote]

How else can a frumpy midwit striver make a 6 figure wage by 30 and squeeze into UMC lifestyle by hanging in there long enough?
I mean this is one way this society allows us to climb out of plebs life style, I am taking it no matter what glamorous high wit genius like you say 👻[/quote]

A state school striver can make $200K by age 30 or 35 in countless fields, most of which are far more fulfilling than a grifter at a mid tier consulting firm. $150K-225K is frankly not much coin, especially in a pricey coastal city. 10 to 15 years consulting at a mid tier firm is throwing the prime of your life away on...nothing. It's...pointless. Especially if you held off on marriage and/or kids, you will look back and realize how pointless it all was. A total waste of the best years of your life.[/quote]

Like tech? Tech only started making big bucks after 2015…

Tell that to the Microsoft millionaires in Seattle. Microsoft made so many employees millionaires in the 1990s that Seattle's biggest growth industry was philanthropy as the 30 year old Microsoft millionaires wanted to give away significant sums of money in a responsible manner. Folks actually hired counselors for advice regarding donating money to charitable causes.[/quote]
