When I was young, a million Deutschmarks was enough to set you up for life. Now I’m sitting on around 800k euros, renting an apartment, and working my 9-to-5 job. So if I ever actually reach a million euros, I guess that’ll be the new 100k. Back to square one, and all the influencers say, “Yeah, from now on it’ll be easier.”

@Solitair 800k is a good start toward paying for your nursing home later on without putting the financial burden on your children

@DonkeyInvestor It would almost be funny if it weren't so close to the truth 🙁

@DonkeyInvestor You really notice it a lot these past few years! No matter what you're talking about—groceries, gas, electricity…—life is almost no fun anymore on a "normal" income 🙁

@BavarianLion Luckily, neither of us has a regular income 👍

@DonkeyInvestor With my meager civil servant's salary, I sit in the corner and cry 😪

@Solitair As a civil servant, you can earn a very good living. Having many children helps, and living in a rural area provides decent purchasing power.
@DonkeyInvestor None of that applies to me
