Let me guess, you take out huge loans for, or even worse, lease cars you can't afford? Hello NPC

>> No.14945241

my old coworker did exactly this except he had no college degree and no 401k plan. also he rented and had a spic wife with a son that wasn't his. whenever an assignment got too overwhelming he would get so nervous and have to pop a xanax, he was on prozac or ritalin or some shit too (don't remember name). i felt really bad for him. Oh and he got fired for some office politics shit. Most important lesson he taught me? It doesn't matter how good you work, all that matters is who sees it. If you can do a good job and put in extra effort when your boss won't notice, don't bother. Oh and never get married.

lol 65k a year two working partners and and they splurge on olive garden??

You could have a pretty nice car with that kind of income with some cash left over for go fast parts and entry to the drag strip every weekend.

People like that choose to be miserable because they spend their money on what? I dont even know, I make significantly less than 65k a year and I have more than enough money to throw at a hobby that makes me feel happy.

40 hours a week isn't a lot to give to sheckelstein unless you let it take over your real life.

Most entry level engineers arent making that much unless they live in DC, NYC, SF.

The amount of outsourcing these days of engineering work is insane. Only labor shortages that exist are in CS and thats because the completion rate of CS degrees is really low.

You can't really count on making a lot of money as an engineer out of college unless you go to a high cost of living city, and when we get into a recession, developers are the first to be fired, unless they work for large companies in critical roles.

You could probably cut that in half. Hit Costco and Walmart maybe once every two weeks, so about two hours per week for most of your shopping. General cleaning, laundry, etc, also maybe two hours a week. Buy a crockpot and you can make great meals, I'll take 30 minutes preparing a roast, let it stew 6-8 hrs while I do whatever else, then I have 3-4 days worth of food.
