[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Disappointing that all this money translates into the driving of luxury cars for personal satisfaction as opposed to the opening of charitable foundations for the betterment of society. DH and I have an HHI of $3.6M, yet $2.8M of that goes right out the door and into our own foundation to fund scholarships for kids (girls and minorities, especially) pursuing STEM fields in college. We drive a 2021 Hyundai Elantra and a 2017 Toyota Corolla. Guess we’re just cut from a different cloth.[/quote] Please explain how your HHI is 3.6 and you have 2.8 to donate. I would love to know how you aren’t paying federal and state taxes/SS/insurances, etc. that would total closer to 50% of your income, and then you would still have living expenses, college savings/tuition, health care, etc.[/quote] It’s called making sacrifices. We don’t all need to live in suburban McMansions, take flashy vacations, or wear designer clothing. For some of us, the thrill in life is knowing that we’re one of the select few responsible for driving society forward in a positive way. [/quote]
