I had a similar trajectory to you. Not destitute as a child but my family was lower class. Pretty well off now though

I have a rough idea of how much it would cost me to retire immediately and maintain my life in a way I'm happy until I am 100 if I lived that long

I see executives get bonus packages yearly that are more than that number would be for me. Their bonus nevermind their actual salaries.

And yet they act like their lives are hard and their jobs are hard.

I don't get it either
