for me personally, nobody's given me the expectation that i will be rich, and given the potential career options that presently interest me, i would say that i would be foolishly naive to believe i would be rich. and yet, i'm surrounded by people (parents, parents friends, family) who enjoy extremely comfortable lives for many reasons, even though few of them are actually in fields that one would consider to be extremely well-paying, which makes me think it is achievable. the question is how.
