From Broke Intern to $200k: My Office Struggles & Breakthroughs! 😱💼

Hey friends, I’m Emily, and I started working at 16, juggling internships and part-time gigs while dreaming of financial freedom. For years, it felt like I was stuck—office politics, endless overtime, and barely scraping by. I hit $100k net worth after 6 years, but honestly, I was exhausted and doubting if I’d ever make real progress. The office drama and constant pressure to outperform my coworkers left me drained. I even thought about quitting more than once. But someone once told me, “The first $100k is the hardest,” and, to my surprise, things really did speed up after that. I hit $200k in just 6 months! Now, I’m aiming for $300k by year’s end, but the stress and competition at work still get to me. Has anyone else felt stuck or overwhelmed by workplace drama on their financial journey? How did you push through? I’d love your advice! 🤔💬 #JobCareer #Career #CareerGrowth
