Hmm, looks like I’m paying a lot of interest on my Disney-branded credit card. No problem, I keep getting 0%-balance-transfer card offers in the mail, I’ll just move the balance to one of those. I can keep doing this forever, right?

Most unrealistic part of this imo. The exact person you are describing is very likely an “independent” that always votes R except for Biden because he didn’t like the yellow man’s language.

In keeping with the theme of the thread it took including the OP only five posts before someone was "accidentally" racist.

$60K is like bare minimum needed to survive but as long as C-levels and shareholders keep adding to their yacht collection I’m good with just doing my part because I’m a full month away from being homeless unlike those guys making $40K.

It's a lot of money and honestly starting to creep into bougie territory. Anyone making 60k better start being careful about accepting their rich get richer raises because 70k is the cut off for when guillotine cut offs start. If you know what I mean.

It's triple the wage of someone making 10.5 an hour. Nobody making 70k is actually producing 3x the value of a cashier who makes only 23k for a full year rs work.

I work at a real estate corp that owns 40some large middle class multifamily apartments across the US. Right now multifamily real estate is one of the highest sought after investments. Everyone is buying up as much as they can and raising rents. Our target has been to raise rents 17% each new lease

also like maybe... instead of raging at people that make more than minimum wage, we should like, raise minimum wage?

nah lets just execute anyone that makes over 50k a year.

It’s true. If you’re not out in the farmland boonies and just in a suburb of a metro*, $60k is just about where you can start to breathe a little easier. It’s not a lot of money, but it’s usually the point where you can afford to build up a decent emergency fund (that will be completely wiped out in the first medical emergency you have because we live in hell).
