I know very few people who are able to save anything at all, let alone 200 dollars. At first glance it seems like you're out of touch.

unfortunately we don't have access to median discretionary income but the average is quite promising, and even if we reduce it by something like 25% to be safe, most people are in a position to stash away $100 or $200 a month without breaking a sweat


I mean, even using mean instead of median, fully 1/5 people have negative discretionary income

Are you saying that 1/5 people are edge cases?


how do you figure that 1/5 of working americans have negative discretionary income?
