if you had in 2012 1. Bought a house in the Bay Area in a region like Pacifica for 500k. 2. Joined FB as a E4 and gotten at least a MA each half S&P 500 returned 13.6% over the past decade. You’d have a *minimum* of 4.5M net worth today. Howd you spend the past 8 years? Working at IBM or SAP instead? Incredible how 1-2 decisions can shape the rest of your life. TC 532k
Salty
Thread of the year. Sick TC bro
Fuck yeah
Hindsight is always 20/20 What's your strategy going forward? Is it going to be a bull market in the next 8 years like the last 8 years?
Why on earth are you asking a Facebook software engineer for an economic forecast? You're dumb bro
With conservative stock market and real estate gains of 5% and 3% respectively, it would take me 6.5 years to reach 2.5M net worth. I don’t think the next 8 will be as good as the past 8, so those expected returns may be lower. Plan is invest in index funds and rentals. Ask IBM for the real scoop though, that guy clearly has it figured it out.
This post is bad. OP is bad in spite of TC.
OP proves you can have a high TC and still be stupid.
IBM why all the jealousy? What’s your TC?
You bay poor bruh
You need at least 609k TC to not be poor in the bay 😂
If I had invested 10k in btc in 2012 I would have 14MN in my bank so gtfo
If I had played winning numbers at mega millions my net worth would be 100m
Statistically your net worth would still be shit playing the lottery. bro do you even stat
Statistically speaking, the probability of you joining Facebook in 2012 given that you did not is 0. Also for those interested in learning more about stats, OP is what we call an outlier. Most of the people in tech tend to be relatively smart but op’s IQ seems to fall outside of what is statistically reasonable to expect (I.e. much lower), thus an outlier.😉
OP, just live and learn. Invest in real estate and stocks now and leave the regrets behind.
Cheers Bezos Clause. That’s all any of us can do.
