Envy can be a friend breaker.
I would be happy for a friend that makes five times what I do, not envious.
I wouldn't choose to have friends that would be envious. I want all of my friends to be wildly successful and I'm sure they hope the same for me.

But what if you do the same job with the same company as your friend? 5X is likely not realistic but 50-75% more could be possible.
