@mareomni: A lot of people in tech accidentally became high earners before becoming financially literate and I genuinely think that’s why so many people still feel behind despite making objectively good money #softwareengineer #softwareengineering #financialliteracy #PersonalFinance
maybe if you said 600k id understand but 200-300k is broke

New grad at Google making 250k in the bay, coming from Michigan, a house here in the bay costing 2 Million dollars is like 150k Max back in Michigan, and rent isn’t any better, the cheapest decent 1B I got was 2700
