Default Re: Pick your salary

[ QUOTE ]
here's another problem with the exponentially doubling salary - after year 14 when you're making 10.24m, you're making so much money you won't want to retire. year 17- 82M. year 20 about 756m. year 23 about - 6.28 billion. You're going to keep saying, "well, I'd like to retire, but they're paying me 6 billion dollars!" At year 28 they're paying you 192 billion dollars.

even though I'm in the $200K camp, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have this thought process. If I ever made it to the billion mark, especially. I'd find it very difficult to not retire from a job I didn't love past the 8 figure mark.
