人比人气死人啊 :-)
There are two people from my family work for 投资银行 so I know their actual income. I can assure you None of them make near 400k. But they are just barely 25, so 钱程无量。
But I also know a guy (27) worked for hedge fund for 2 years when he first out of college. He declared retirement this year. He made a small fortune and is enough to have his own hedge fund comp. He is humble. He said he'll run his company from a sailboat because sailing is his passion. :-)
Life is not always fair as old saying goes.
As for our ordinary people, we live an ordinary life. That means 9-5, salary just enough to feed the family, pay the mortage, and save some for retirement. When you are 60, you retire with just enough to support yourselves to 90. What happens after 90? Only God knows.
The key is, I live a happy life. So, I'm happy. :-) Who cares how much other people makes.
Just say hi,:)))
By the way, I haven't figured out how I should prononce your name.
We made the choice of our life most of times, money is not everything, it is ok to be an ordinary people, and be aware of the happienss you get from the ordinary life....
27', he made a "small" fortune, it has to be at least 10M's. He might live on the interests he has earned from. You would never know what is going to happen to rest of his life though...
Oh well, don't worry, be happy! Drink your milk, eat your beef potato stew, and get up & down, then, stay put! Don't you think this is the life you expected most? If it is, lucky you!
