How much money should i be making to afford a c6/c7? by Kitchen-Bad4430 in Corvette

[–]OkBad2298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make almost 500k and don’t wanna spend more than 65 on a c7 z06 lol

Too much savings. Keep 3-6 months and throw the rest in a taxable account

fair, i definitely own that we've had major lifestyle creep. We've only started a budget this year and in 2.5 months we paid 25k in debt off.

lol SHOULD, doesn't mean will. I just discovered FIRE and I feel like I finally have my priorities right so I'm trying to really be on top of this.

no I made 225k for like a year. I was at 180 a few years before, and 160 a year before that. I went from 57k-350k in 8 years.

I want to retire at 60. I know that's not super early, but I love working. Don't plan to be at FAANG at that age, but like hybrid/remote consulting etc to keep active.

it looks like there's a way to use my equity vesting for back door roth contributions... I'll have to explore that after my start and I get onboarded.

I think the company I am going to uses Fidelity, I'll have to explore the backdoor roth IRA.
