North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Define comfortably.

Only spending 1/3 of your monthly pay on rent?
Owning a vehicle?
Eating out once a week?
Vacation once or twice a year?

Saving $500 a month at at least?


This comfortable shyt is too undefined.

$60,000 a year in North Jersey ain’t comfortable. Especially if you’re single living alone.

60k for NJ :mjlol: sure if you living in a basement. 60k in 2010 was doable not now.

The official definition from where this came from

The 50/30/20 budget recommends that for sustainable comfort,
  • 50% of your salary should be allocated to your needs, such as housing, groceries and transportation;
  • 30% toward wants like entertainment and hobbies
  • 20% toward paying off debt, saving or investing.
So if you make 100k, after taxes, you're lucky to see 70

let's call it 72 to make the math easy.

You net 6K a month

3000 - covers the rent AND car note, insurance, groceries, laundry, health insurance.
1800 - covers hoes and hobbies and all your proclivities.
1200 - pays off loans, saving, investing.

Comfortable doesn't mean luxury.

Pretty accurate

But a lot of people are thinking about living in the suburbs, gated community, that expensive car, etc etc

But if a man and woman both bringing in 50k each, there are neighborhoods that u can live comfortably..

But I forgot in the black social media world, the love and hip hop, real housewives of Atlanta shyt,,, u just a poor nikka if u not living next to tyler perry and jay and beyonce
