标题:Meet the HENRYs: The Six-Figure Earners Who Don’t Feel Rich
正文:Fifteen years ago if you’d told April Little that she’d make $300,000 a year, she would have pictured a life free of financial stress. “The white picket fence—I have the whole visual in my head,” says Little, 38 years old, a human-resources executive turned career coach. “I don’t want to sound ungrateful, but when I got to that proverbial mountaintop I realized there’s a lot of expenses. And I still don’t own a home.” So go the plush-but-not-too-plush lives of the Americans who qualify as HENRY—high earner, not rich yet.
