Those people are comfortable, well into the top 10% of earners. And I think it's nice that they don't spend money hiring a slimeball tax accountant to help avoid paying their part to society. I think it's sick that there are people making 6 or 7 figures a year helping cunts to save 7 or 8 figures a year that should be going into schools and infrastructure, and it's even sicker that those people are looked up to because they drive nice cars and wear expensive suits.
