- 100k living in the usa
Making low six figures, which I would say is under 130k, isn't anywhere near what it used to be back in the day. With prices the way they are, you will be struggling in New York or LA and it depends on where in the south you land. If you're in a big city in Texas, especially Austin, you can get in a decent apartment and have a decent car but you will be far from balling... Pretty much a middle class life. Same for Florida since it is a super hot market.
Yes. Wife pulls in 20k more than me
Young kids, pets
Cars long paid off (both over 10 years old
)
Owe $500k on our house (which is worth $1.4mill)
We want to upgrade to a bigger house but would be looking at least 1.8mill pre renovations to stay in our city
Toronto cost of living is different

I do well enough for not being out of school yet. I've worked one of my family businesses B4 I legally could.
Having gone to culinary school pre undergrad I make side bread by cooking for friends of my parents and others. I'm just stacking. I did ovhaul my Karen wagon with Vermont skiing stickers and get it tuned up a bit.

Also from an educational perspective I haven't gone very far.
All the career minded positions i've held required a bachelors and I do not have one, some even required a masters degree.
I've never been to university, but when I was young my parents always made me do squats while pulling my ears forward, pretty much daily.
That definitely helped me out career wise, and I always exceled at positions where I didn't meet the educational requirements.
Although pulling the ears forward and squatting made me smarter it did not increase my interest in school studies, but i was always interested in what i was interested in.
Moral of the story, just because you don't meet the job requirements still go ahead and apply, you'll learn on the job.

no kids so i'm ballin
30% of one of my jobs pay goes to 401k so i think i am saving responsibly
home almost paid off so i think i'm responsible with bills
my bf says i live way below my means but he is a hella conspicuous consumer. like he is the type to have hella sneakers, jewelry, etc. i might buy two or three designer shoes a year which probably cost more than his whole sneaker collection but it's not a lot of quantity so he is fooled by the illusion of my spending.
i have a gorgeous wrangler that is paid off but he thinks i should be driving a new escalade or something like that (my best friend says this too but he wants me in a tesla lol). i don't see the point when my car is still perfect condition and paid off.
i do spend when i want and i spend on my family, but most of my time is spent working which keeps me out of spending trouble. for example i went on a group trip to vegas last month but i was still checking into work. so i would be in the hotel working in the morning and early afternoon while others were out spending on food and whatever tf they were doing.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Yes. I bad at managing my personal finances so it doesn't do what should do, but my life for the most part is comfortable.
C’mon bro, you need to get your credit score right. You’re just giving money away.

2k/wk, sometimes more. I'm not balling I have no clue how all these people on socials do it. I'm single with no children, currently in the Savannah area which has a col that's 6% lower than the national average and I'm still living regular, just super comfortable and I'm able to stack a little bit bit of change. 
inspirationIf you are living in a major city 100k+ isn’t doing much. Right now I make 117k but it should be going up soon. My girl makes a little more than half that so combined we are around 190k. I’m just trying to save money and pay down student loan debt. I bought a used car all cash. We pay down our credit card every month. And we use our credit card points to travel.
We are moving into a 590k dollar house soon also. Right now we are planning on kids and when you consider the cost of childcare and housing, 100k ain’t much. If you’re trying to buy a house and raise a family in or near a major city you have to be financially disciplined. Now if you don’t want any of that then you can do whatever you want lol. But if you only start to take your finances serious once you’re ready to settle down you’re going to be in for a world of pain.
