I get that high-earners are far more likely to bring up their income online, but it's still depressing as hell to open this subreddit and read posts that go like:

My boss was mean to me at my 150k/year job so I showed him by getting a 250k/year job!!!!

I'm not saying that these people are part of the problem but, holy shit, is it demoralizing to know that I'll never earn anywhere close to what they made at their "shitty" job in my lifetime. Like most people, I wasn't born to the right set of parents and didn't get to network in college to meet the right set of people in my early 20's in order to achieve a high-paying career.
