Welp i’m one year into my SWE job and attempting to hang on until I’m tapped out by external forces. Living with in laws, luckily partner had a job, so save all of my 85k each year. Minimum Viable retirement is 10 years away if we don’t buy a house.
Godspeed, I got fucked last year and the job market is only getting worse
