Honestly if you're making 180k combined at that age and don't have kids yet, be cheap as gently caress and put as much away as you can. A lot of spending becomes non optional down the road. That way they could retire way earlier.

Kinda tells you something about the worthlessness of most people's "hobbies." Amassing junk isn't a hobby, it's a compulsion. You're not learning anything or growing in any way by doing it. A man who spends all his free time in a wood shop will emerge with furniture to give his wife, each piece better-assembled than the one before. There is a primal instinct to reward that. A goober excitedly opening an eBay box with a thing in it that's going on a shelf has none of that.

Personally I don't trust anyone who makes more than like 60k a year, money fucks people up and anyone who hoards wealth or believes that you can never have too much money is guaranteed to be a terrible human being in some regard

I don't even know how someone who makes 60k, lives on their own, is saving for retirement, and has (pick one) student debt or a car loan can even go about "hoarding wealth." I make a decent bit more than that and support a wife and one child on it in a low COL area, and my wife still shops with a binder full of coupons and knows when the meat goes on clearance.

I'm talking about individual wealth, obviously 60k supporting a big family isn't going to go very far.

Idk I read this article that pegged the point where increase in money stopped equating increase in the quality of life at 80k. 60k might be low but people really overestimate how much money you need, because our society teaches us that there's always something to spend it on. There's always something else you need to buy, there's always a fancier version of anything you own, and you can never have enough money, let alone too much. It's very hard to reject that and be honest with yourself about what you really need in life.

I made that when I was single, too, in the same low COL metro I live in now. Your number is seriously low. Single people making $60k don't have wealth, much less the ability to hoard it, and it's not because they're replacing their year old iPads and having tanning beds installed in their condos.

I mean idk I can get all my bills and expenses paid with easily less than say $25k/yr living in a nice 2 bedroom apartment in San Diego which is pretty drat high COL (Encinitas, specifically).

What are you doing with the other half of that if you don't have a kid or spouse to support? Especially if you are in a lower COL area.

"Hoarding wealth" is def a strong term there but you're def gonna be flush with cash.

Bull loving poo poo you're making a 2-bedroom apartment with the Real Adult Starter Pack - health insurance, retirement savings, transportation, phone, and groceries - happen in San Diego on $25k without either some popcorn-for-dinner poo poo or a rentboy arrangement happening.

1/4 of a 2-bedroom apartment is 75% less than a 2-bedroom apartment. Also trying to figure out if literally any leisure activity at all counts as "luxury you don't need" to you. Willing to bet it does. Either way, you called me "dog" which is fun.

This is the nitpickiest poo poo I've heard all day. I think it is obvious when someone says they are living in a 2 bedroom apartment they aren't paying the entire cost of the rent by themselves otherwise why would they be living in a 2 bedroom.
