It’s about time and freedom.
I’m in the top 10% easily, and I don’t need to worry about money, but I don’t feel rich. I’ve still got to get up 5 days a week for work. I’ve got 1/3 of my income going to taxes, and 1/3 going to a mortgage.
Take away those and I’d feel rich.

Exactly. Mind broken NPCs think man made money matters in the real world. The only 2 currencies in existence are time and effort.
Gold, paper money, diamonds, and all the other Jewish inventions are worth exactly 0.
Just take gold and diamonds in the forest and try to survive. Hence Jews and their system are incompatible with reality and fake and gay

Kikes own the banks, bought the government, own the universities, own the news media.. Only the bankers have enough money to do this. They use pedophiles in government to reward them with children and blackmail them.
This became possible with fractional reserve banking, and a nightmare with debt based fiat money

You are right to be angry. You should have had that kind of life and your good wife and beautiful children were stolen from you by demons.

You clearly don't know have the most basic concept of how the world works if you think boomers, as a whole, are a problem. Not only do you not know shit you're denying what you're eyes are seeing. Is the ceo of Blackrock a boomer and are all boomers ceos of the large financial institutions capturing the regulatory boards in order to legislate their goals? You're a dumb bitch for falling for the "blame your middle class neighbor because they're boomers" shit. Politics doesn't matter unless you're funding political campaigns. Jared Kushner isn't a boomer. Hunter Biden isn't a boomer. None of the faggot streamers filling your head with garbage are boomers. Your teachers aren't boomers. The cops aren't boomers. The average politician isn't a boomer.

The entire generational warfare shit to redirect blame on to boomers/genx/millenials/zoomers/etc instead of the very few wealthy people controlling the economy is 100% a kiked psyop.

5 million U.S. is my current walk away number.
Blind Trust 20 year annuity you could take home about 25 grand a month and still have your 5 million payout at the end of the term. At my current investment institute it would be 5 separate 1mil accounts that payout 4968 a month each.
I already have a nice home and I'm not into boats or any expensive things.

>Shafonne and Jimmy Myers buy organic fruits and vegetables, even though the rising grocery bill can be hard to look at. They drive nice cars. But the couple, who earn about $350,000 a year, have rented since moving to Temecula, Calif., in 2019.

That is because they are not rich and never will be. Niggers can't understand money. You need a 3 digit IQ and a functional prefrontal cortex to understand delayed gratification and compound interest. No matter how high their Affirmative Action fueled income, they will spend more than they have on tacky shit that has no real value.

Use the 4% rule. Take whatever you think you would want to spend in an average year to feel rich, now divide by 0.04. That is your number. Form me, maybe $3 million US.

so they basically pay rent from 4k-10k basically.
earn about 350k so we can summarize that in one week or 2 they can pay rent cause at 350k a year it's like 6.7k a week, but then the article says they pay
>$3,600-a-month rent.
far below internet rental prices.
so What do they spend it on?

>In their cul-de-sac, in an area they picked for the schools, only a few neighbors are homeowners with small children. Many are older, with adult kids who live with them. Others are renters like the Myers family.

From this I summarize they are not paying private school which is 40-60k a year.

So where does that money go to? how much do they pay in utilities ? 200-400 on cellphones, 100 bucks on internet, 1k on electrical????
Like the figures don't make sense were they lose the money? is It on child care?


the only thing i can think of is the invest back in the business.
> Shafonne, who is 45 and owns a wedding media company.

in which case they are being retarded about it.

Earners? The fuck is this? Do they mean income from a position at the job?

Top 10% of those who are paid for a job? If so, not a single person 'earning' that base pay is rich if they are not a major international corporation ceo, and even then those are making money primarily not off of income but shares. Nobody working a real job is ever going to be rich. Even someone making 500k a year is just a piss pot poorfag compared to the 'rich' of this empire.

The 'rich' are those who are making their money off of rent seeking. Those creatures are not 'earning' anything. They are just collecting rigged welfare off the backs of workers using the protection of the extortion racket we call government. The sooner we get nuked, the sooner those vermin die.

It's actually all relative. You can feel rich if you're on ebt. Today two people came to my door at different times about to hand me new cellphones, in their boxes and everything. I'm talking Iphone 15 and whatever samsung model he had. "Here is your ebt benefit" and its phones.

That would make you feel rich, as a person without a lot of money.

It is just another story conflating income with wealth, which are very different things. Income is the first derivative of wealth with respect to time. It is how quickly your wealth is potentially increasing. However kikes convince everyone to live beyond their means so they stay in debt forever and never build any actual wealth.

The truly rich have ascended beyond the point where money and work is even something to think about. Everything is done for them, anything they could dream of is at their fingertips, and even if they have a “job” like being CEO or something they could walk away tomorrow and they and the next 3 generations of their family would be set for life. You’re not “rich” if you even have to ask if you’re rich.

depends entirely on asset ownership. If you own assets you can be fine on a low income.

The goal is to accumulate assets and wealth surviving on a small part of your income

100k USD would buy me a smol fixer upper in West Virginia that would allow me to have a place to live without paying rent.

Assuming nothing happens, in five years I could save up for a much larger estate and rent out my old house to someone for income that would pay almost all my rent for the new house.

So quite literally 100k USD would set my up for life. If I was unable to upgrade my living standards, because I didnt have to pay rent or a mortgage, I could work at a gas station and survive as a single male.

Top 10% is like $170k.

I'm at $165k and only feel modesty successful. Have a mortgage and around $500k in net worth.
Yet somehow I can't afford my own house st current prices and market interest rates. I'm basically stuck.

true but there are many factors to consider like property taxes, maintaining an asset, potential destruction of your asset if you rent it out, etc.

Property taxes on a 100k house would not be much. If I have a well, say 4 or so solar panels and a few 100sq foot greenhouses to further reduce my expenditures, my life would be closer than not to free and I would probably end up spending more on alcohol and cigarettes than I would on water, food, and nearly the same amount on property taxes.

I never understood how a nation founded on the idea of the smallest possible government whose function is not to get in the way of people doing their own thing managed to get away with normalizing such a poisonous concept. "well it goes into funding local infra-" yeah shut the fuck up, it all goes into backing more loans and then goes to nigger gibs and israel, along with the loans it backed. I understand you can't do anything about those taxes other than pay them where you have to but fuck, man, they're completely mental. Councilor Basedberg takes a walk around, scribbles in his notebook, marks your property as being up in value due to global economic trends and suddenly your protection racket fee is up by 50% it is fucking INSANE

I’ve already figured that out. I’m not even interested in feeling wealthy. But I do know the amount by which I would feel sufficiently secure and perfectly content. It would be an amount that would allow me to live well and do anything I really want to do. I would say 3.3 million would do it. With that, I could buy a house for an half million and then invest the rest in treasury bonds or something very stable and have about 12,000 per month income from bond interest.
I would actually be even more productive than I am now. I would just do things I enjoy more without having to worry. I don’t ever intend to ‘retire’.
