I'm at $1.35 mil age 26 in UK. I'm also a doctor and feel like I'll be $5 mil+ by 30. My childhood was abysmal, single mum on bennies I never want to see again and a dad I see once a year.
It genuinely sucks. In most developed countries there isn't any financial stress anyway and every normie can own a car and go on holiday regularly so it's not even like you need much, but even now I'm so far past the average person my age I find it impossible to relate, dating is incredibly hard unless you want to date people 35+ cause no one is in the same position and I have to move about constantly because I'm non UK resident and avoiding capital gains tax.
Long term it seems like the vast majority of people I've met who came from wealthy backgrounds (Eton, Harrow, Pauls, Oxbridge, Imperial, LSE, UCL) are useless and I think there's got to be a genetic component, no reason to suspect my kids won't be any different to the norm and never achieve anything of note so it doesn't even mean anything in the end.
I'm just not sure what the point of this was and it is so fucking lonely here. Obviously being poor sucks but there is definitely a middle ground and this is not it. I'm deeply envious of the Barrat build middle class where you have a nice lifestyle but none of the stressors which come with being a true outlier. This is just shit and it only gets worse but it's impossible to stop human nature and turn around.
>but you're not rich, I have just as much
Yes, you're 35 and American where anyone with a couple of brain cells can do it. In the UK, at 26, this is top 0.01%.
