Lulz you piece of sh!t - Nice sig fuk boi

Also what you need to realize is no one in this thread will ever truly be wealthy unless you own your own company and are good at sales. If you work for someone else you will always be a pleb. If you are not in some form of higher level sales you will always be a pleb. If you are making 100k-200k then that means you are making your boss(s) millions per year and if you were independent you would be able to retire within a couple of years.

This is a fair point and I don't disagree with anything you've said. However, as skarlorn alluded to earlier in the thread, the time investment for being your own boss (and salesman, depending on the field) is very significant. I can't claim to make 100k a year yet, but I do have a cushy 7:00 - 3:30 schedule in a comfortable job. I suppose you have to figure out how important money is to you and spend the appropriate time chasing after said dollar bills y'all. Personally, I'm happy making what I make. I own my own truck and house and have enough disposable income to be reasonably happy financially.

Life is like EQ in that there's always a drive to get to that next level or that next attainable shiny. Owning your own business is akin to raiding full time, whereas I am a still a filthy casual, I guess.

Skarlorn making some side cash off a click bait scheme is not being a business owner.

u're woefully ignorant of compensation schema outside of "muh boss". you're trapped behind glass in the n@gg@rverse looking thru at iPhone Xs.
I am in on the biggest compensation scam currently on the market, placing mid level IT and FDA regulatory compliance contractors in high level positions where my company has $50-$100 an hour mark ups! I skim 8% off the cream and drive home in my monster truck every night to a warm meal and a loving family (sorry if I am triggering you)

All the people claiming wealth sound like new money to me.

Personal happiness trumps all and I find it humorous when other people try to explain what other people should do and need for happiness.

More money doesn't always = more happiness. For some a median range of wealth is enough to feel safe, content, and happy.

Not everyone gauges success in life on how high they climb up corporate ladders. Some find fulfillment in doing many other types of ventures.
