Once you break past 300k , rest of the grind isn’t worth unless you are earning mil +. This chase will take up your life and for what .. maybe drive a model y instead of bmw 3 series, own a 4br house in east bay instead of 3br. It’s all in vain unless you break into exec roles or start your own sh*t. Relax, focus on your job and enjoy life. TC: 440k

TC and savings becomes important if you ever decide to raise a family, or do your own thing and not be a corporate drone for the rest of your life
I am raising a family and have no issues with meeting any needs. You can’t logically think that with your 500k job you can save enough to fund your startup all by yourself, that’s when you go hunting for investors.
Your TC is 440k and you are telling people to stay at 300k?
OP trying to slow us down so they can win. Don't listen to them folks, keep chasing tc /s
You can remove the /s
Then inflation hits and suddenly the 300k becomes insufficient to sustain
300K insufficient to "sustain"? Bruh gotta come out of the bubble. I'd understand if you say insufficient yo live a luxurious life but sustain? Pfft.
Sure, go ahead if this works for you. Others know what works for them.
Good perspective. Thanks. I’m about to change jobs and already hunting for the next TC while I should be happy
“Once you break past 300k” bruh. you could stop at 100k or even lower and still be able to make life happen. yes, “TC chasing” is dumb. but your post is terrible, ESPECIALLY with your pay included in it
i just thought about it. i’m guessing you get recommended blind posts where people complain about only making 300k. i can’t see any other reason being acceptable-enough for your pov lol
This! The amount of effort needed to go from 300K to 400K+ is far less than the effort you need to put in to get to 300K.
TC has no significance unless you attach YOE with it. You could have 20 yoe making 440k or 2 yoe making 440k
Well if you live in bay area you need to chase TC to afford a decent house in a decent neighborhood 😂
