Especially if you ain't got kids.
And here's the key. A dude working a mcdonalds job can eventually save up and get that nice whip or shoe game collection just like dudes with cash, just will take him longer and require more dedication.

But you can't be doing all that and got other mouths to feed. That's why so many struggle.

50k

It's basically my lifestyle now. I already know choosing to avoid corporate america will make the 6 cert lifestyle harder or damn near impossible. But I just can't do it. Feels good being around normal ass black folk all day. Having to deal with folk during this Trump era, and how they be trying to "test" mufukkas? Naw fukk that.

My sanity more important than financial cushion.
There's no such thing as cushion in Corporate America.

I know plenty of folks pulling $150k+ in the private sector and they straight up burnt up on the inside. Most of these brehs and brehettes are in law and finance here in DC.

Give me the 50k in a low cost of living area and I'm set.

Exactly. You're a slave to money. Money is more important to you than self respect, dignity, peace of mind and your health.

You need to re-evaluate what's important to you.

I know what's important to me lol, money. Don't impose your values on me breh, I'm perfectly fine with dedicating my life to the pursuit of money. It's what I enjoy.

Yh, in general, doing a job that you hate would be something you would cope with if you go mouths to feed and it puts the food on the table and ensures your family are living comfortable.

But nobody would stay in a job that they really hate if there are other jobs out there and the only one who could possibly suffer from you leaving is you
