Being on $150k is not being rich, even if you work at that level of salary for decades you still won't be rich. If you're lucky and invest well, you will likely become financially independent, and be able to retire at 60 and be able to sustain a ~$40k lifestyle without needing to work, own a house, but that's about it (this already is massive for like 99% of the human population though). Hardly "building Star Trek replicators" level. The one weird trick to being rich is being born rich, OP

If you were able to make a cool thousand dollars every single day and somehow ignore inflation, you would need to have been saving up since the year 800 BC to reach a billion dollars now. That's 300 years before the founding of the Roman Republic. To reach a million you'd just need a bit under 3 years. You can't save your way into being rich lol, you have to inherit or luck out a one in a trillion chance or be a major sociopath and exploit the poo poo out of everyone else, the latter of which is incidentally the true source of most big fortunes
