In a zoom call with a friend one day, he told me the salary of a lawyer he was working with as part of his job. He said, “If I were making this sort of money, I would just work for 2 years at most and then retire!” Before I could provide the support and necessary validation on his enthusiastic plan, he immediately had second thoughts. He continued, “Oh well, while being a student few years ago, I used to think the same way about the salary I am making currently, and I was so stupid! At this income, I’ll be working till 65 to make decent wealth!” Turns out my validation wasn’t required, after all.
