I'm pretty sure you could easily buy a Tesla if you wanted to with 3 million in the bank. It's like somebody with a Virginia ham under their arm crying the blues because they don't have any bread.
In all honesty, sounds like you are in dire need of perspective. You should take some inspiration from your username and hit the road.
- deanmoriarty 6y agoI agree with everything you said, that’s why I think moving away from Silicon Valley and building a network of “normal” people will be my best cure here. I fully understand the controversy of my earlier message, I grew up poor in a modest European country after all. But when you live your daily life and nearly all your friends of similar age or younger live in beautiful houses that cost $3M+ and you cannot even host a house gathering because you live in a rented small condo, that slowly affects your perspective. I fully understand I could buy a Tesla. The difference is that a Tesla would be 5% of my net worth, so a very significant expense that I’m not going to entertain for a luxury and useless purchase. For most of my peers, it’s 0.5%, so insignificant and more akin to what I would spend for a very nice vacation. Same analogy for an expensive house.
- askafriend 6y agoA Tesla would be less than 3% of your net worth (a fully optioned out model 3, no less). Just go buy it if you're really that bothered by not having one. You don't have to host parties at your place, just go party at your friend's place. You'll likely cross double digit millions by the time you're in your mid or late 40s - I don't get what you're moping about. Go put $100k into ETH and thank me later if you're looking to take a risk and ride the wave.
