So would you prefer "High" salaries but short shelf life or slow but steady progression till retirement at 55 or 65.

I am in the slow but steady type of profession. Starting salary was really low (below $2k) and current pay above those investment and senior bankers and into my 32nd year of work.

Because of the initial low salary, I built up the habit of frugal and simple living. We currently own 2 condos and 2 cars (mass market type, nothing fancy) and our passive income is $150k pa.
Not this fkn guy from the annual income thread AGAIN
