Every runs their own race in the end, why compare yourself with your friends? Let them have their fun, they are obviously proud (likely even a little arrogant) of where they ended up so let them be.

If you're happy you're happy. If you always compare with others, there's always going to be someone earning more or having a better job than you.

On their end, while they can ****-talk you all they want, that's just to make them feel better that they are not first class, or in the topmost firms in UK.

Honestly, nobody who was truly "top" would come back to SG when UK/HK have more opportunities lol.
