I'm 22 and earn €120,000. Are you jealous?

After successfully completing my bachelor's degree in business administration, I seized the opportunity to join a renowned MM investment bank as an investment banker. In my first year, I earn a fixed salary of €85,000, supplemented by bonuses of €20,000-40,000, bringing my total annual income to a six-figure sum.

Am I alone in my perception, or do you sense a certain tendency towards envy on the part of others in this forum in every discussion about financial topics?

To put it another way: Are you jealous of me?

Am I alone in my perception, or do you feel a certain envy on the part of others in this forum during any discussion on financial issues?

You will feel this envy everywhere, whether in this forum or if you would talk to strangers about it openly on the street. Our society is quite envious in the financial sector, as well as talking little about salary and fortune.

In the USA, on the other hand, this is a halfway normal smalltalk theme, other culture is just.

In other words, are you jealous of me?

No, I find it exciting what others deserve, simply from interest and comparison, just when there are people who are somewhere similar and more comparable to me.

But I’m not jealous, on the contrary, just when I work myself, I like it to others very much. And even with inheritance and thus undeserved, I am not jealous of what they have, but if rather –I don’t think of a good word — “frusted” not to have. So I would never say in an “enidical” way “I think it’s unfair that Y has amount X” but rather “if I had amount X, that would have helped me very much.” So more to me than to others.

My tip, however, is simply not to mention exact values if you want to perform good discussions here. I therefore always think about my salary, more information than “most 10% so from approx. 3,700 net as a single,” there is no one here. Because on the envy debates or comments like “I wouldn’t have that much, otherwise I wouldn’t talk about it” I can save myself.

And so ask how “I’m gonna have a lot of XY,” what some post, I don’t need. I am educated enough to be able to classify my income, knowing how much I can afford it or not, I do not need comments from strangers for or even recognition what I have achieved. I know that myself.

Nope. Not the bean. On the contrary, beautiful for you. If that’s so important for you, you should stay there. But that’s different for everyone. That’s why I can’t imagine envy.

Well, if I’m supposed to be honest, a little. But you also got it through your studies. Remember: You are only a mortal person, all the money in the world does not take advantage of anything when you close to the truly beautiful world: the beauty of nature, art, culture, literature, music, and social coexistence with people. This is the most important thing about being human!

No, not a piece.

You should only be aware that you are moving in a privileged circle. You can’t do that. Putting yourself in and firing such a envy debate now brings exactly what?

I work in sales, target group pensioners. My merit goes in your direction. Knowledge doesn’t do that to my environment. So, of course, that I do not deserve badly is clear to those who go from half to half. And that’s good too. Especially in times like this, the “flex” is rather counterproductive. In times like this, I’m just trying to get my little sheep dry and good.

What do I have when everyone is jealous of me? I don’t want to be reduced to my account. I’m lucky – like you – to monetize one of my talents. That’s all that is…

You learn with the time that sometimes students do not earn much more than yourself. Meaning I did everything right.

Not to you personally. Such salaries are not unusual in the industry with corresponding qualifications. What is striking, however, is your begging for attention by showing your alleged wealth, which gives you a very unbelievable overall. There seems to be someone looking for attention he doesn’t get.

This may be true for a 22-year-old. If you’re having the same age, too. But on the one hand there is the saying, “You have money, you don’t talk about it.” On the other hand, this is simply a question of style and if you don’t understand, then you won’t stay in the industry for long. Discretion is top priority.

You we have a fixed salary of 85 k€ that will be inflated again by an annual wage of a small earner. ♪ service, it’s a good thing to argue about.

No. You are still an employee and how to say the best employees are millionaires the best entrepreneurs….because your part.

I earn more or less the same, only I am 17 years older than you. However, I don’t have to work for my living.

Neid is the most honest form of recognition but also the most primitive.

Don’t make a envy. Highest self-representation. With 10-15 BJ and other jobs a day, I could get on the double. And that would be tax-free, but I don’t want it and don’t need it. My 50k is enough for me. There are others for happiness.

No, I’m not jealous – especially since money is not the most important thing in life.

Such an income is not unusual in the industry. But no reason to brag with it. You seem to have a great value if you’re looking for envy here as a good earner.

That makes me think you have a good income, but basically you’re a poor sausage.

There is therefore no reason to be jealous.

No. The money you deserve can’t compensate that I would be bored to death in your profession, because I don’t care about the topic at all. I’d be envious if you earned much more in my job than I do.

No, I’m more sorry about you. Instead of enjoying your prosperity, you have to beg here for recognition and attention in which you are trying. Speaks for a rather tedious self-consciousness.

Money is important without question – but not everything
