100k a year is more than a lot of people earn as their salary. Sure they aren't high flying international playboys (I mean scientists) but it's a reasonable benchmark to measure to.
- nine_k 4y agoGiven the low salaries in science, $100k may as well be salaries of two full-time researchers. Also, if you tly a lot, you accumulate miles, so you pay less, or upgrade for free / cheap. Anecdotally, I managed to fly nearly 50k miles, that is, circle the Earth.twice in 2022 for about $5k total. In economy class, of course; a higher class would be, say, $12k. So, at these prices, $100k would buy me like 16 times around the planet. This puts the amount of flying into some perspective.
