I worked hard to become a nuclear power operator. Privilege has nothing to do with it. I left the house with a hundred bucks and the clothes on my back.
No, i was 17 when i left the house. I started saving on my 20’s. And yes i did save $500 a month. I’m currently 40 and that account is 1.2 million today. By the time I’m 60 it should be (unless the whole system collapse) 2.5.
Your privilege is showing. If you had 500 bucks a month lying around in your 20s, you were a lot better off than you realize.

You only had 100 dollars yet you put 500 dollars away each month?
