A Million Dollars ain't what I thought it was...

show us the math, son.

show us the math, son.

U.S. Average Salaries for Corporate Lawyers by Year Trajectory

First 160,000
Second 170,000
Third 185,000
Fourth 210,000
Fifth 230,000
Sixth 250,000
Seventh 270,000
Eighth 280,000

Assuming two lawyers got married, after six years, they'd be sitting on 2.4 Million combined. Uncle Sam needs his. If they stayed up to date, they would have 1.35 Million combined by the six year mark. If the couple lived off of 50k to 60k a year for 6 years (300k), instead of balling out of control, they'd be sitting on a Million without even accounting for the annual return on interest or any gain in dividends.

my dude came here with the works and all i aint never thought of it like that tho good looks

 

[Koko888]

Pretty much. Living prudently is the key part, it's easy to go broke still on a million dollars (or pounds).

 

[kingofharts]

I agree with what you're saying...issue is even with those type power couples they'll often want to, or feel pressured by their peer groups, to live a high expenditure lifestyle.

You know how Americans like to consume lol.

agreed. the problem with getting money is that when most come into a large amount, they still live outside of there means. just because you have a million doesnt mean you have to/ can live the millionare lifestyle

 

[GTariq]

Based off what you said, a million dollars can be a big feat. I think living off 50-60k or less ain't bad at all.

 

[So ILL]

I wouldn't mind $1 million right now.....

50-60 k can be a little tight for two people tho, for a single person is def doable.

but my homie a retail dude at at&T and after he get his sales

bonus's and after tax's he got like 30k net

and his girl make about the same. they dont have really nice cars

they live in a small house,they really cant vacation more then once

they gotta eat at chain restaraunts when they do goo out like twice a month.

if they ever had a kid it would be ruff,they pretty much just surviving better

money can be spent sooooo fast its ridiculous..
a million aint shit.. but to those who dont have it its everything..

but if ur ever so lucky to get to that status ull see that it aint..
kind of like when u were a kid.. a dollar was BALLIN!! then 5... then 20.. then 100.. then 1000.. and so on

and lol@ finally savin up to a mil and bein 65.. 70+ where's the fun in that!?
jus my opinion but id rather spend a million in a lifetime and die at 65.. 70+ then save it by that age and be dead before my next birthday. hahaha

 

[dalyricalbandit]

lol real shit tho being 65 with a million is cool but i rather ball out now

 

[BiblicalAtheist]

that might as well be IN of every commercial

It is, its just subliminal.

 

[Maalik]

retirement is like second child hood tho

no job and shit

u guys are talking like it's easy to make a mill in todays world.

It aint easy..but, its alot more attainable than I thought it was. One of my good friends graduating this year, got a 100k Job offer from Citigroup. Only 22. Assuming he stay on his shit....and eventually go back for his MBA....he got a good shot.

 

[dalyricalbandit]

u spend a dollar you aint a millionaire anymore.

ive always said this shit shit u throw away a penny u a one

Yea....thats true. Especially the dollar part. When I was younger, two dollars got me two bags of chips, a Quarter Juice, Starburst, a Honeybun & 2 Oatmeal Cookies. Thought I was BALLIN!!!!! Don't let me have gotten 10 dollars. Now I can burn through $1000 in a weekend.

Fuck being 65 with $4 Million. Its better to be in your 20s/30s & balling out. But, thats the issue with success at the end of it. You work your whole life to build a foundation & in the end, you still gonna die & cant take shit with you. I be mad as shit, if I got uber rich because I knew one day I'd be dead. A nigga wanna be 25 forever with $300 Million in the bank. They already found data that could prolong the human life cycle to 150 years & by the time that shit get approved, it won't matter for us niggas typing.

We live in a society thats always telling us to buy more, spend more get more thats why most people even rich people are in debt because people feed into that bs
