You dumb dipshit cuck, you clearly don't understand that I made 60k when I fucking started. you don't understand that I work in fucking nuclear plants on HP STEAM TURBINES and clearly don't understand that it takes YEARS OF WORK IN THE SAME FIELD to earn 100k plus without a college degree. AIRPLANE MECHANICS ARE DIPSHIT KEKS. I push a crew for 91 hour weeks for sometimes months at a time. this job is dangerous. rigging, changing conditions, constant heat and environmental stress, plus radiological safety in bwr plants.

seriously, kill yourself because I'm 31 with a high school diploma and fucking made 200k for the first time in my life last year. (I worked 7 months out of the year, 84-91 hour weeks)

Me, I just looked over my time and I got 5 months off last year and averaged $55.60 an hour straight time.

My last job last spring ended May 05 and I didn't go back to work until august and then I ended my fall season in october and didn't go back to work until last week of January

Honest answer? Federal Reserve will create a digital stablecoin called something stupid like eUSD and to withdraw from bank to get actual paper cash, it will be converted at exchange rate against that electronic cash. While this is being forced onto people, the Fed will start to go into negative interest rates, like -1.5% which will punish people sitting on cash ( see savers getting screwed over even more ). When people try to take out their cash, it will be converted against the eUSD, so for example if the Fed decides to implement negative interest rates, when you try to take out cash to just hold onto it for 0% rate instead of getting it taken, whenever you need to convert it back into eUSD ( for most transactions and bills and new laws that limit transactions over certain amount of dollars to "combat terrorism" ) you will convert 100 cash into 98.5 eUSD into your Bank account.
This is how they will screw people over even more than they already screw people right now for the past 10 nears basically 0% interest on money.
Trying to force people into investments, equity, etc to "spur" the economy, welcome to hell.

Make about 50k after taxes in a flyover state. No kids, no plans for kids. Bought a house as soon as I could find a 3 bdrm under 70k, been living in it for 2 years now with a couple tenants. My monthly expenses are just under 600$. I'm also in the process of leveraging a few tax deeds for some properties. I make the maximum contributions to my IRA and max allowable for my 401k which is matched 50% to 1st 5% contributed. I've been working and saving since I was 16 but its never ruled my life.

Additionally, I try to spend as little as I can on fun things, so I had to learn to be handy and this has helped me keep maintenance costs on my car down.

This all also excludes my dads(RIP) properties which I don't make a cent from because a few relatives live in them and I don't like making money off family. I'm sure I'm a kid in your eyes but with patience and planning, barring bad luck, most things can be reasonably accomplished.

... wow, dude you and I have two totally different expectations for our retirements. You're kidding yourself if you think you can save an adequate amount of money to retire by 33. For example - if you paid NO BILLS and NO TAXES, you would save $500,000 in 10 years. If you planned to live until 75 - that gives you $11,900 a year to live on. This doesn't even account for inflation. You're either going to live a life of poverty, or you're going to need a LOT more cash.

It’s true, millwrights can make a lot, and work long hours. I did a little here and there with them as a welder, now I just do pipe welding in food plants / cold storage. Tig and stick. Anyhow there’s a lot of good paying construction type jobs out there that pay well and have massive overtime potential. You just have to sacrifice comfort and and the daily routine most jobs offer. A good way to make money sure, but a lot of these workers abuse substances and have shaky relationships, night shifts and traveling after money will do that I guess.
