Like ever? I feel like it’s almost guaranteed the more money the worse you become. I know this isn’t very dialectic but it’s true.

I’m paying rent now, not in the U.S. but in a major metropolitan city that easily stands with the likes of New York and L.A., and I make a fraction of 120k. Less than half, less than a third. So, yes, I would live like a king. Americans pretending that that isn’t a fuckton of money are delusional.
I mean if you’re not American then it’s a different amount of money, functionally. If I get injured and spend your salary on a doctor’s visit Im not feeling very royal. You don’t have to call people delusional, congratulations on not living in hell country I guess. Happy for you, my dude.
Uhhhh? I don’t live in the U.S. but I still live in hell, it’s hell nearly everywhere, most of my paycheck still goes to rent. 120k is still 120k, and whether it’s dollars, euros, or pounds, it’s still a ridiculous amount of money. Delusional is the only appropriate word for someone claiming that isn’t wealthy, I genuinely cannot fathom the thought.
Part of the way some end up making that money is through college which can set you up with substantial debt. I know many people who get degrees also make significantly less than that and why I don’t think anyone making 120k could really say they’re “poor” but they could also be living paycheck to paycheck based on monthly rent, loans, and car/transportation in the wrong city
lol so many offended people trying to disagree with you here
even 100k in SF, LA, NYC is a truckload of money
