Ugh jealousy
Just saw a former classmate post about a brand new Benz he just bought for his mom. How TF do you have that kind of money coming from MS and working at a startup? I took a class with this guy and he was a total windbag. Talked a lot but didn’t get any shit done. I can see how this could fly in sales but not engineering. Wtf am I doing wrong...
Probably still talking up the bs
Car loan? Don't fret buddy.
I mean the dude could have statistically 0 savings and retirement like most people
Easy to explain: No 401k contribution, no HSA contribution, saving up alll the money just to buy the expensive car so he can post on Facebook while getting his first job out of college. So all the money after taxes goes straight up in apartment rent and the expensive car. Cuz YOLO
And here I am dumping money into my 401k and ESPP like a chump
Same here dude. Been doing 401k max, HSA max, ESPP and riding a 10+ year old car for the past 3 years like a pro. Got to set priorities straight up
Focus on yourself man. I know it’s easier said than done, but wishing your enemies success beyond what you have is the only way to peace of mind.
Dang y’all, all I have is company equity. I need to get my shit in check
There are a lot of things to feel jealous of, but someone having a better car isn't one. It's one of those things that cost a lot, but give you hardly any real happiness.
Envy is a "beach" 😉 instead of calling him names you should call him for career counseling.
Befriend them if you can't compete them!
0% down 2% interest for 60 months. Easy for any engineering new hire.
You’re wrong, talkers who code just a little bit can go really far in corporate world.
But why??
Cause management can't see though the shit or they have some implicit shitty reasons.
