    the delusion from both sides itt is wild

    op doing crazy well to be making what hes making at his age

    but he's still gonna be priced out of so many things in the future, and is already currently priced out of so many things

    it aint gonna get much better than it is right now, simple as

    i mean op is also acting like his yearly salary is capped by the time he's 25 years old. everyone gets priced out of something but at the end of the day this dude is probably gonna be making 250k/yr in 5-10 years depending on what industry/city he's in. out of all the people i see talking about money on this site, op is totally fine.

    If we’re gonna think about it like that then a 401K shouldn’t be necessary either. Neither are mandatory they are both supplemental options to square away your living expenses in your seniority aside from just simply saving your money

    I can sympathize with op when a lot of social nets like social security are getting whittled down, and the best advice given to staying afloat in your older years is “figure it out” lol

    Didn't use to be that way. The erasure of pensions, relaxed laws on overtime pay, and decades of stagnant wages created this issue

    In my country people work til they die, aint no retirement, even having that option is a privilege.

    i know some people making more at OPs age they’re just delusional

    yeah i mean most of my buddies are making similar money and just aren't as delusional. most of them are working in finance or real estate but they are very aware that they're not stuck with an entry level salary for the rest of their lives lmfao
