That's nice, but honestly I'd be surprised if many were able to do that at all without a lot of generational wealth backing it up. Assuming you went to college

That's nice, but honestly I'd be surprised if many were able to do that at all without a lot of generational wealth backing it up. Assuming you went to college and got out in 4 years thats only 8 years to put back 1x salary. Given that a lot of those first few years is invested into "setting up shop" getting things like furniture, a reliable vehicle, maybe buying a house, getting married, sometimes having kids, I don't think thats in the cards for many people.
