My girlfriend is 30 and has a net wealth of $0.00. Is she totally screwed? Retirement?

And you seem insecure because you have an incessant desire to talk about how awesome you are. But it that works for you and keeps the ladies coming, whatever works, I guess. It does make you insufferable on the Internet, but also provides us with plenty of entertainment. So I guess we all win.

i like it when OP's interact regularly to their troll attempts and get angry, KEEP GOING OP!the fact that you've kept meticulous track of how many natl monuments you've visited and how many months you've spent abroad is SOOO lame. i bet you keep track of how many "cool things" you've done in the same spreadsheet as your finances, don't you? i'm glad we're not friends, i'd have to stop answering your texts.

You guys can post all the BS you want. It's not going to change either my life or yours. You're all losers behind the curve. Good luck with that.

Fun thread. Been married for nigh 30 years. At 30-35 we lived pay check to pay check with no significant savings. But those were great years. Had kids and debt for a long time but have climbed out of most of that (save mortgage).

My wife works PT and doesn't pull in a lot of money but I'll keep her. Didn't marry and stick with her for her money nor for her cooking. We'll work for another 10 years, here's to hoping that she gets that promotion and works full time soon. We'll make do.

But hey OP, you're pretty boss, how fast can you run a 10K?

That's what i'm talking about 70g, let the hate flow, keep the thread rolling.good luck with that gf, tell her i said hi.

My PR is 29:08, but that was back in college. Probably more like 37 minutes at present, but I also have a powerlifting total of close to 800lbs, so I'm not too worried about it. Strength and all-around fitness is more conducive to success and happiness in life.

Congrats on being happily married. Few people these days can say they are.

Yes but you have to spend the majority of your life working your ass off, that's so pathetic and sad, and no national park visit or quality woman will make that up. And 30yo woman is not exactly a "quality" rather than a 1yo whiskey.

LRC ladies, care to chime in?

Some women ( not all) are not that great with money. I dated a girl a long while back who was 30 and making 50 K ( teacher - 2001) who lived paycheck to paycheck. I set her up on a 75 / 25 plan . Saving 25 % of everything. Checks, tax refund etc. She saved up 3000 in 4 months. Not bad, I agree. She got antsy with it and blew it all on a down payment for a SUV. We broke up a little while after so it was pretty fruitful.

200K income and own a house.

Not worried.

Just curious - are you including your home equity in your net worth calculations?

Good point. I've paid off about 50K of a 400K mortgage. Still some student loans but not much.

Letsrun slueths, get on this one!

Any chance you could share your GPA, test scores, and IQ score, by the way?

I know a 36 yo male with a net value of 0.00 dollars...actually owns money to a ton of people but no plans of paying it back so 0.00 is just about right.

Still has some success with the ladies on the side despite net worth and married with 2 kids.

Doesn't work nor wants to work lives with his mum & dad (with aforementioned family) in a small house & trains full time 110 miles/week to break the elusive sub 2h40 marathon.

Other activities include Facebook, Instagram & twitter.

Net worth 2 yrs ago about 50k - didn't think the kids needed it then or later in life so squandered it.

Good luck looking me up.

GPA was 3.6xx

Not sure what test scores you want.

I score between 140 and 150 depending on the IQ test.

Earning potential huge Should he get a nickel for every time he logged on Facebook, Instagram & twitter.

Net worth 2 yrs ago about 60k + good job - didn't think he, his wife or the kids needed it then or later in life so squandered it.

Just steady savings and careful investment. I didn't finish my PhD until I was nearly 40, but that's partly because I took on add much statistical consulting work as I could and had a full time job while writing my dissertation. My first $100,000 salary didn't come until I was 45.

Bull shat! You don't make 1M in 10 years when your salary is less than 100K.

I keep pretty careful records, so I can post details if your interest is genuine. I made some smart investments, but it didn't take miracles. My point is really that savings can come on bursts and is much easier as you age and gain experience. Your first 30 years should be spent building a foundation, not trying maximize savings.

Just a simple case of steady savings and careful investment (of a tiny little $400K inheritance)

Wtf bruh? A 400k is not "tiny."

Especially when you are only in your 30s. My future kids will get my doctor money investments when they're like 50 and I'm 85 (dead)
