Financial independence via

In both options it is implied that you achieve FI. Doesn’t matter when though IMO the second option would take longer. I could be wrong because I don’t make 300k. Feel free to correct me.

    You have to be able to control your spending to ever achieve financial independence. The people that aren't disciplined with that just keep upping their lifestyle with each increase and never get ahead. It's unbelievably easy to blow a 300k salary, especially in a place with a lot of distractions like SF. There's rarely a case where you make so much you don't need control what you spend. Even multi millionaires have run out of money because they can't stop spending.

    If you find what you can live on comfortably and keep that lifestyle through all your raises you'll be golden and just saving more and more.

      It sounds like you're on the right track if you are not blowing your money on lifestyle increases. Higher salary will naturally come and doesn't even require that much effort; self discipline is way harder and more important though and some never learn it...

    We live in the Matrix. There is no financial independence for the ordinary joe. Entire earth is a slave plantation.
