How can we measure our own career progress?

I have an idea: take your first salary. Let’s say it’s R$ 1,800 when you’re 18.

Now imagine that every 3 or 5 years, we have an obligation to increase our income by 30%.

So, at 18: R$ 1,800
At 21: + 30% = R$ 2,340
At 24: + 30% = R$ 3,040

And so on, if you keep forcing yourself to earn more money and invest part of it.

It’s impossible to reach 65 receiving only your retirement pension, with zero assets.

It’s also impossible to reach 40 without having made your million.

It’s also impossible to reach 50 with a salary + income below 40 thousand reais.
