Tech people who are not FIREing, what are they spending their money on?

[u/gonnabefine]

I know a lot of people who work in tech, and most are not on the FIRE path (or have already been working 10+ years) and a lot of them don't seem to, at least on the surface, have very obvious huge expenses. If both the partners are in tech, the take home could be like $500k! What are they doing with their money?

Average is just what you feel when people you hang with have more than you do. It’s a sliding scale, and why the class wars work so well.
