Well I highly doubt you'd be on six figures as a Chemical Engineer or banking, but you can make a lot of money on property development.
I'd be happy with a lifetime salary of like 30k tbh :tongue:

A chemical engineer would not make 6 figures in England no. But abroad yes. My uncle is a chemical engineer and works in saudi, he makes £800 a day. And Investment bankers make 100-200k in their 30s easily, by the age 40 you could be making 400k+

Depends, my aspirational track is the IBD > PE one so:
20s:
£70k - £300k
30s:
£300k - £1.5mil
40s:
£2mil+

EDIT:
If I don't end up on that track, I'd settle for something like this

20s:
£30k-100k
30s:
£100k - £150k
40s:
£150k+

Even if you did earn that amount of money.. what would you spend it on?where would it go towards? I don't think it's healthy for anyone to posses that amount of money whether it was through hard work or not.
I'm studying Politics with Human Rights, and with good grades and a bit of luck, after getting an MA from a good University and maybe a PhD if I want to teach, I could reasonably be looking at 35.000/60.000/100.000+.
