I live pretty fine on 30k a year in a small town in a small place. No debt

It just takes not being materialistic

---

I make 100k but only 12k is given to me. I'm working on this.

Same, except I make even less. The average income in my town is 20k. I'd never trade these quite small town lives for whatever crazy area these folks making over 100k are making.

I'd like to make a bit more but I don't know what kind of careers I'd be able to do

i'm finally half way to six figures... pretty proud of myself considering i'm a highschool dropout who got his GED at 21 lmao

i have been working at the same company five years and i go as hard as possible at work... people always made fun of me or said i was trying too hard. that it would never pay off. and now i'm making $25/hr and they're still making $10-$14. you reap what you sew, and i've been sewing success this entire time.

imagine that person making exactly 60k macaroos. They are screwed on this poll

Aren't the prices of groceries and things like video games universal?

Got bumped to 50k thanks to a hell of a pay raise this year.

---

I dunno. Groceries keep going up cause of inflation

I make around $15k a year after taxes. My max income is basically $22k after taxes(this is what i can make a year without having to bump my income up by another $10k to compensate for health insurance and taxes)

I literally don't know, was a legit question. I know that a redbull or a copy of CoD costs the same across SF, NYC, and Miami. But I do vaguely remember these things being significantly cheaper in Phoenix, but I also haven't been to PHX lately.

So what? I spend 150-180 on groceries a month, it's not like that tripled (and I eat 3000cal/day)

My mortgage is 800+200 HOA, I split that with my wife. My place is 850sqft

I only eat food I cook

I exercise for free, my hobbies are free

My commute is short and I usually catch a ride with someone else

I bought my reliable used car with cash

I rarely buy anything at all

What else is so expensive? I take two months off a year and have three day weekends. My vacations are climbing trips where I camp the whole time

---

100k is the most common? Interesting. I would say I don't believe it, but most people here are in their 30s-40s and work in tech.

I make around 80k but I'm right out of college and live in a MCOL area.

---

This is probably my ignorance talking, but what type of job pays less than 12k a year? I only put that, because that's the poverty limit where I live. You need to make less than that to qualify for aid.

Part time work server could be that low.

Part-Time Minimum Wage, yea, I didn't consider that.

You know we live in a shit country when we have employers paying their $3-5 an HR and expect to make the rest from tips to make a living.


---

Over 100k underground drilling. Only work 9 months of the year.

---

Some years a bit more than 50k, some a bit less.

---

3 dollars

pretty sure most servers I've heard of clear $15-$20/hour consistently
average server wage in my rando little diner is around $29-$30/hour
cry for the back of the restaurant, they're the ones who need it

Video games, sure, but even making as little as I do, I can still splurge on a game or two if I want. But these days I rarely do anyways.

And places like Walmart and Dollar stores making getting a months worth of groceries for like $100-$200 very easy.

It seems like a lot of folks can't comprehend that a good portion of people don't live in expensive cities. My buddy bought his first house for $8,000 8 years ago and his current nice house for like $25k.

Ime what they can't comprehend is not being consumerist

"But there's no way you can fit everything you own in less than 800sq ft that's impossible" is a common one

I live in a small town too and was able to pay off my house early making around $40k give or take depending on overtime.

People who live in or around big cities don't seem to understand how much different it is and that people making under $60k don't have to be poor.

I live in a small town, and 40k is getting you a whole lot of fuck all here.
