$94K seems a bit low to me to feel "financially independent". I have kids and student loans and am in lower cost city, and don't feel that would even nearly cover it.

What do you think the number should be in your area?

Anyone have situational depression? Can’t stop beating myself up over a decision a year ago. Basically missed out on a massive amount of money. I know this seems trite and i never even cared thatt much about money before this year.
