what country are you in? US or UK?

what&apos;s the underlying concern - the somewhat implied feeling of holding the lifestyle-financing tiger by the tail, or &apos;there must be more to life than material things&apos; ?

During the week: A fast car you can&apos;t drive, a girl you don&apos;t see and a life you don&apos;t have.Use that massive potential to get a job closer to home.

Dude - do NOT change you job to one where you are home during the week, otherwise I will no longer be able to bone your girl on wednesday evenings

Is it not rather more important how you rate it? I would give it a D, but your values and priorities may be different.

Your life and its relative value hasn&apos;t anything to do with your earning potential.Boy.

This has to be a wind-up. However, you are clearly American so I may give you the benefit of the doubt on this one. My friend, your BIG problem is that you are obsessed with the way the world views you. Because the people around you tell you that you are rich, you feel you have to act like you are. As a result you always feel strapped for cash and want this forum to tell you how well you are doing and that it will all be alright in the end.

Dear 20s-c,Impossible to rate your life as you haven&apos;t mentioned whether you&apos;re happy or not!As someone hinted at above, you&apos;re very concerned with the externatilities, in fact you&apos;re rather utilitarian when &apos;analysing&apos; your girlfriend.I think I&apos;m right in saying that the rags to riches tragectory you&apos;ve been on has stalled a bit, but you were probably getting a bit disillusioned with it anyway?I think your priorities are a bit mixed up, but only know in which order they should be, so don&apos;t allow people - especially a bunch of anons on forums - to say you must aim for a bigger car, bigger pay package!

You know the answer deep down, no need to hear it from us. Time to find God.

80k salary isn&apos;t that impressive at all - actually none of the things you listed there is.If you are 5-10 lbs overweight in American standard (I am 99.9999% sure you are American), than you must be super-obese.... Keep pretending to be rich to your gf, that&apos;s probably the only reason she&apos;s going out with an obese, self-centred DH!

80k aged 24? doing very well indeed. query £1m in 15 years: the only place there would be a cat&apos;s chance in hell of that would be Big 4 or strat firm. what&apos;s your scale: is F a down and out under a railway bridge. Yes you are doing well but clearly not a happy bunny so what&apos;s the point?

the fact you&apos;re on a consulting forum asking anonymous people to rate your life based on meaningless metrics such as salary, hours worked, amount overweight should tell you that you&apos;ve lost your way and need to reassess what&apos;s important to you. Life should be fun, not something measured like that - you need to make change.

There is more to life ...

Rate your life? How about Z!

80k dollars or pounds a year? If dollars you suck, if pounds you&apos;re ok. If zloty&apos;s, you&apos;re the bo11ox my man!
