In the United States, as a single man you should make AT LEAST twice your age times $1,000 and it varies by city.

Bare Minimum income for single male = (AGE X 2 ) X 1,000
So if you're 30 you should be making at least $60K

Comfortable Minimum income for single male = ( AGE X 2.5 ) X 1,000
So if you're 30 you need to be making at least $90K

Again, it varies by city. Like making $100K in Atlanta barely keeps you afloat. So i would assume it's more in places like New York or San Francisco.

If you cant survive off 100k in Atlanta or nyc, you got bad spending habits

All the 6 figure cats I know who complain about struggling take 2 vacations a year, live in a nice neighborhood, drive benzs, kids go to private school and eat at fancy restaurants from time to time.

I'm like GTFOH with your complaining.

Maybe she lives in Cali or NY

In most of south and Midwest I don't think 40k is struggling if single with no kids (wrap it up)

:mjlol: You are delusional.

Breh, if you live alone, have a mortgage, a car note and some student loans, $100K in Atlanta isn't a lot of money breh.

Edit: for the record when I say staying afloat I'm not talking about living paycheck to paycheck. I'm talking about you're earning a decent living but don't have a lot of splurge money to be balling. There is living paycheck to paycheck, staying afloat, comfortable, and balling. There are layers to the comfortable level so it depends on what YOU consider comfortable.

But I know a mofo living in Grant Park making $110K and getting his light cut off from time to time. It's definitely a money management thing in his part.but a lot of it has to do with having expensive taste too. Grant Park condos renting for damn near $2K, factor in his "Benz" because he has to "show n*ggas". His words not mine.

To me staying afloat means bills paid able to save a little while living a decent living

Omg you’re right. That’s so true, ww do the most to get married. I forget that for them it really is a huge deal especially if they aren’t by a certain age.

Why do you think it’s so much more important to WW to be married even if it’s to someone not necessarily desirable more so than BW who desire marriage too but often will stay single for a long time if they can’t get a man with some of the desirable qualities they seek?

I do think Black women tend to hold out hope for Mr. Perfect coming along and sweeping them off their feet.

That's why a lot of them are not married.

Mr. Perfect does not exist. And even if he does, why would he settle down with that specific Black woman?

This is the thing with social media, it’s given the platform for idiots and mentality I’ll people who in real life u would immediately know there not all there and walk away.

But online u figure everyone u are having a convo has a sound mind, also u don’t even know the age of the person u are talking to.

So, you believe bw want Mr. Perfect to sweep them off their feet in order for them to want marriage whereas ww and other groups just want to be married, period?
