I have my total worth over 5 million at this point, which is great. Ulti's got some good advice here but unless you have a large starting capital you probably won't make as much as you want. The stock market historically makes 7-8%. Instead of risking a home run, just invest in a index fund tracking the s&p 500 which has a historical return of 10% or so (it does usually have a small yearly fee however, under .25% though). It's pretty damn safe in the long run, as long as you can afford to wait out a bearish market. (So don't sell when the market has a setback and wait for it to rebound). But you should diversify in some bonds, commodities and cash investments (cds are cash investments). --- DPOblivion beat us all. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I make 110k at my job, but the thing i like the most is having no f***ing debt. Amazing feeling, although ive never had a ton of debt to begin with so maybe i dont even understand it that much tbh. Atlanta is also really cheap compared to most major cities, although were a few tiers below the NYCs, LAs, San Frans, Chicagos, etc.
I just put most of my money in decent dividend stocks. Some blue chip, some high yield but more risky types, etc. Getting my dividend income up to 1400/month is the 2017 goal. But ya to me being debt free is more important than having 110k vs 80k vs 50k etc. --- Casual Revolution 2007 - 2016 ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'd imagine there could be a lot of 20 somethings (late 20 something mostly) who make 100k and have quite a bit of debt. Lawyers and doctors immediately come to mind. And of course there are still tons of people making 6 figs who have no idea how to live within their means, even if their means is much greater.
I went Math/CS, so ya. Cheaper for sure. Graduated with a little student loan debt and paid it off before moving out. I commuted to undergrad and for my masters which hurt my social life a bit, but i saved so much money. Hell I finished my master's from Georgia Tech, got my first job at 80k, and still lived at my parents till i paid it off. That was a bit overboard tbh, but whatever. Lotta weird conversations with parents when you live with them in your mid 20s making 80k+. Saving like 85% of your take home pay though man....sometimes i miss those days. --- Casual Revolution 2007 - 2016 ... Copied to Clipboard!
