Three questions:

How much do you make a month?
Is it worth it?
How much money (in todays figures) will you have to spend per month when you retire?

My pay changes most months.
I think the most important thing is not how much we make but rather how much we can save each month.

Pleased enough with the Savings I make each month so yeah I think it's worth it.
Keeping spending down here is easier than elsewhere I think.

We aren't killed with taxes either.

Connected question: how much potential inheritance down the line would be enough for you to feel like you didn't need to worry too much?

I was in the 98th percentile of income so that's unlikely, Nester Noodlemon.

Worth it? As shocking at it may sound to Dave's people; money doesn't grow on trees, it does require actual work. I thought it was worth it for a time, and at a certain point decided it was not worth it; decreasing marginal benefits.

^ Stupid post number one million on how "we ESL people think everyone fits into a certain bucket, and do the things that we think people in that bucket do". It reveals things about you guys; that you are drones, and have fantasy world ideas about "global elites".

I'd like to point out that having a middle class job, and being good at it, is nothing out of the ordinary...in my world.

Come on, buddy. Give it up. Nobody is buying your Warren Buffett of ESL cafe schtick.

As a self proclaimed 2%er what are you doing wasting huge amounts of time on an ESL discussion forum? Surely you have better things to do?

No. Why would I? Because of your dream-world perceptions of "global elites". Perhaps you should turn off the TV kiddo.

People do different things at different times.

Lol. I've never met anyone who made over 100k/year who spends near the amount of time you do on a message board. You're not an exception that proves the rule, you're a fraud.
