Hit My Financial Goal But Coworkers Are Making Work Hell 😩

I just turned 30 and finally hit my 500k net worth goal! 🎉 I've been grinding since college, learning about investing and saving every penny. But here's the problem - I made the mistake of mentioning my financial milestone to a few coworkers during lunch last week. Now the office atmosphere is completely toxic. People are making snide comments about my "privilege" and giving me the cold shoulder. My manager even made a sarcastic joke about me not needing my paycheck anymore. 😔 I feel so isolated and don't know how to handle this situation. Should I just keep quiet about my achievements moving forward? How do you deal with workplace jealousy when you've worked your butt off for success? I worked so hard for this milestone and now I can't even celebrate properly. Any advice would be amazing - I'm really struggling here! 💭 #JobCareer #WorkplaceJealousy #CareerSuccess

Colleagues Sabotaging Me After I Hit $10K Retirement Goal 😰💸

Hey everyone, I really need your advice right now. I'm a 27-year-old woman working in a high-stress corporate environment, and I just hit $10K in my 401k! 🎉 I started saving when I was 24, and I'm so proud of this milestone. But here's the problem - I made the mistake of mentioning my retirement planning goals to a few coworkers during lunch. Now they're acting super weird around me! Some are making snide comments about me being "too good" for the job, and others are spreading rumors that I'm planning to quit soon. My manager even pulled me aside asking if I'm "mentally checked out" 😔 I make around $55K in this expensive city and have been maxing out my HSA and childcare FSA too. My husband thinks I'm overreacting, but the office tension is killing me! Should I address this directly with my colleagues or just keep my head down? How do you handle workplace jealousy around financial success? 💔 #WorkplaceJealousy #RetirementGoals #OfficeConflict #JobCareer
