I think people really overestimate how much money you need to live a good quality life. Like, yeah, location, children, etc. matter, but you really do not need millions of dollars to live a nice, peaceful life. Seeing people talk down on making $200,000–$300,000 a year, or women acting like they need to bag the richest man, is crazy. If you can handle your finances, budget where it matters, and splurge in the areas that matter most to you, you can live pretty well making $100,000 to $300,000 a year. I mean, there are people right now acting as if a man making $500,000 is not a lot of money, while they themselves are not making nearly half as much.
