Next up is this salary breakdown for Steph Curry.
Much of those "expenses" he has no control over. The escrow numbers are part of his contract with the NBA and his taxes are part of this "contract" with America and the state of CA. His agent fees are a necessary evil and the 401K is a formality. ;)
My question for everyone is this, do the red numbers matter past a certain point? Curry is set to make 34.68 million dollars this season.
At what number, for you, do the numbers not matter any more?
When we were financial planners we spent a lot of our time talking to our clients about finding that number. I encourage you to at least know yours.
