I guess the only way to feel rich is to make your own company and sell it for 10+ Millions
Youâll always feel poor if you hang out with peers who are richer.
Also feel poor .... Idk why
Unintuitive, but sell a VC backed company for only $10+ million and you might be poorer than working at FAANG. https://techcrunch.com/2011/10/13/understanding-how-dilution-affects-you-at-a-startup/amp/
That was sobering af, thanks for posting
Christ. This also made me realize how worthless my stock options are đ
If youâre in SF, then 330k TC is just above poverty. Move
That's a lie. With 330k TC one might not be able to own a house but can easily afford to rent and healthy lifestyle.
I mean, poverty or Gucci poverty is still poverty. âPovertyâ might be an exaggeration, I doubt the OP is living in a shack of sticks in the mud, but it isnât that far from the truth if one is closed out from homeownership and equity because the housing market is insane. Paying for a healthy lifestyle just to look rich is foolish, and a terrible investment â because it isnât one. If someone canât build wealth, thenâŚ
Leave bay area. If you feel poor with that TC in other states then there is no solution.
Itâs more about you needs than what you have. Your needs could be infinite, but you can also control them and be happy with what you have.
Have you considered: 1. Being thankful for what you have 2. Being success instead of projecting success 3. Sacrificing precious lifespan to create a 10mil company 4. Not whinging about being paid 330k lmao wtff
I feel poor at 235k TC, I can't really afford a house in CA
