I have a choice of barely scraping by while working at Google or worker for lower comp at a startup and saving by paying no rent.

    No. You want to find a partner with high TC and combine your TC. Combined TC will grow much faster rate than single TC

      You can’t get a loan or a mortgage if you’re investing in real estate. You will be able to qualify for more and have properties not accessible to a lower TC. I did say a combined TC can grow at a much FASTER RATE, not a fixed rate

      Obviously you’re too dumb for investing and don’t know how to grow your tc

      You’re telling me if I make more money, I’d have more money?

      Big if true.

      The rich get richer and the poor stay poor. That’s the way it works. You also share resources between a partner and reduce your spendings, increase your savings and investments.

      You do the math. If you’re too dumb I’ll do it for you.

      Sounds like the more partners I have the richer I’ll get.

      OP
      With 3k min Rent for a small apartment, taking home 8k a month after tax is like taking home 5k. I will only be able to save about 4k a month which is pocket change here.

  • It’s the not money that will get you rich.

    Having a financial roadmap, financial education and literacy will get you more wealth.

    And you don’t need hoards of cash to be able to generate wealth.

    Let's say you save 3000 per month. That's 36k per year post tax. Not enough to make you rich.

      It would be irrational to do that. The ROI of saving is way lower than the ROI of investing in stocks.

    Saving on rent is good, but google will pay more than the startup + rent savings
