Not to take anything away from what you've written but these are just vanity metrics and don't really tell the whole story. I posted a thread back in 2016 asking people if they felt like hitting the 6 figure income really changed their lives and the resounding answer was it didn't. Got a lot of "I can afford to go out for one more nice meal". Living in Toronto and Vancouver a 6 figure salary doesn't go that far after taxes and living expenses. If you're in the top 10% it definitely has a nice ring to it, sounds great, but I know a lot of folks who make upwards of $100k and you'd never be able to tell.Eric1010 wrote: ↑
One is considered top 10% income earner across Canada if s/he makes $95,273/yr in 2015. Just think almost all doctors & dentists make higher than that, then the government workers on sunshine list, then the C-level executives at big corps. The remaining 2% are left for people like us fighting the impossible
I know you've identified trying to hit a goal of $70k and potentially even the 6 figure mark. Have a look at what others have said about their experiences: http://forums.redflagdeals.com/6-figure ... b-1930657/
