Stop being jealous.

If you were smarter you could’ve found a job making more than $170,000 as a 45 year old. But you weren’t thinking strategically.

Don’t blame people who thought strategically and now are the same age as you and retiring from these “soul sucking jobs” to start a 2nd career to do something to benefit the world or maybe to do nothing at all.

I have very HHI and can afford all the luxuries, so not one of the “jealous” ones. But you sound like a mean spirited, obnoxious wannabe snob.

Doubtful. "High earners" are not so very concerned. Stay in your lane, PP - lest you get run over.

If you aren’t inheriting money, it’s the easiest way to afford “that life” (large well decorated/maintained house; summer beach home; private school; 1 ski vacation, and 1 spring break vacation and maybe Europe every other year for family trips to make memories and traditions; luxury cars; lots of help for a frictionless life) with limited money problems.

I’ve been there.
One of these jobs changed my life (from lmc to HHI of 4-8M per year)…..it’s much easier.

Pretty much this. Life is a lot more pleasant when you're rich. It's not a surprise that a significant percentage of graduates from top schools go into finance or consulting. It might be boring. It might be soul-sucking. But unless you come from family wealth, you wouldn't turn it down either.

I definitely would, and did, turn it down. Many people do. And I don't come from a family of wealth either.

You have to have what it takes, not everyone does.

Do you earn $M or you married a breadwinner you met while working finance?

Do something else, go to b-school, and then get into PE or VC. Don't waste your time with banking out of undergrad. From a skill development standpoint, most entry-level jobs are not going to do much for you.
