It&#x27;s like you didn&#x27;t even read his full comment. His point was that he makes enough money that he can invest $100k a year and still make the same salary he&#x27;d get at a startup.<p>&gt; a sum FAR more than almost anyone reading the comment will ever see in their own bank accounts<p>You&#x27;re joking right? Engineers make six figures and can easily save $100k if they try. Your retirement account should have seven figures by the time you retire.
