count yourself lucky and try not to be a jerk to those who are probably looking at 30-40% less career earnings than their luckier peers.
I’m not even hoping for a top 1% career, just an average or good career and not feeling like a second class worker to my peers who had life go more favorably for them to end up at regionals before Covid. Thats literally it.
Buddy, if the idea of working less than half the year, making $200-$300k a year doesn't even meet your threshold of an "average" career, you're not gonna be happy with anything in life.
