Yep. Breaking six digits I thought I had made it. I got a lot further to go.
Why do you feel this way? I would like to make a little more money, but I am glad I don't feel inadequate.
I have friends that likely make 2-3 times more money than I do and I don't think their lives are exponentially better than mine. I could argue the opposite, the big earners are knocking down 60 hours a week in some law firm...no thanks

Don't feel inadequate... until I read this thread. That was mostly a joke, I mean I don't make enough that I go buy a new car simply because I want it, but the bills are paid and I haven't worried about money in a long time, which is enough for me.
