The lifestyle difference between 90K and 120K isn’t that visible. Especially for people who are trying to mitigate lifestyle creep. So you get into this place where you’re working hard for the money, but you don’t even get to spend it because you have to save it and invest it. OR YOU CAN SPEND IT ON MOTORCYLCES LIKE ME. DONT RECOMMEND. #cybersecurity #techcareers
