The banker caricature we read about are much overblown.
It's not overblown. I used to be like you. Earn a lot (peaked at $1m/yr), live in HUDC, drive Jepun chia. But that was in my early 30s. By my early 40s, I said screw it and bought a $500K Porsche cabriolet. Now when I stop at the lights with the top open, all the girls look at me and all the guys hate me. I love it.
