Location matters, America is huge, and you have to look at the county level to understand if people are worse or better off

People who are angry at people with money have a Monopoly mindset Basically what they know about money is what they learned from that game, but real life doesn’t have a fixed board limit

Bro I've been working two jobs for the last 10 years and I still only make around $40,000 a year
Comment from : @CronDon93

You're so right That's why it's easier to save money if you already have money saved You can see the nest egg growing every pay check When you don't have any money saved, it's easier to spend

Unless you're an inheritor a family are tends to dodge the bullet of having to pull themselves out the problem they have is a pressure from a fear constantly of collapse and the lack of needing to build it giving the knowledge of how to manage it and essentially keep it
Comment from : @bradlargay6704

Something to consider is the changing definition of “paycheck to paycheck” brbrIt used to mean that you could barely afford the essentials Food wasn’t guaranteed Had to pick a few days a month to go without electricity Etc I did this voluntarily for a while because I wasn’t saving as much as I wanted when I finished college and school loans were nasty brbrBut now it means that you can only go out 4 times a week with friends Or that you can’t get the latest DLC for a game you play brbrIt’s just fundamentally a different experience
Comment from : @ShawnPitman

A lot of people confuse needs with wants and consider wants needs because they work Someone has to do something just means I have to do something because relying on some external source not only makes you powerless but also takes away any guilt or other driving force to get out of a situation I know not everyone has the opportunities but in the end we are the only ones we can rely on This is all a long winded boring way of saying I dont think any of those numbers help anyone even in this video # people want to be comfortable (WHO SAID THAT), most people I know make 20 an hour after a few years (myself included) living in NY, Are rich people included in these #'s skewing it so hardly? ITS ALWAYS SKEWED (both ways) AND ONLY WE TRULY KNOW HOW MUCH WE NEED TO MAKE IN OUR SITUATION

Living on 2k a month with savings is possible people just suck a budgeting
Comment from : @Aquahalic

If you're living by yourself, it's way more People collectively pooling for expenses that are general The cost goes down per individual
Comment from : @JADED1620

Comfortable is the problem because it's impossible to quantify It's a feeling, a vibe and not a measureable state of living Comfort is sold just like any other deadly drug, and we are junkies in need of a steady fix
Comment from : @chocopappy

Some of the problems are greed, corruption, and uneducated voters The people of forgotten that they are in charge, not the government The government is supposed to represent the people Oh, how the tables have turned, but change is happening now

Comment from : @anthonydowney-uo2zo

On the subject of not paying student loans Minnesota comes after your state tax refund after a couple years of non payment Also, doesn’t it hurt your credit score?
Comment from : @KyleK68

I don’t recommend not paying your student loans Unlike credit cards students loans can come garnish wages and come after bank accounts and or put you in jail

I make less than a Quarter of the ‘Comfortable Salary’ and I feel relatively comfortable It’s about how you spend your money It’s studies like this that make me realize the majority of Americans are bad with money
Comment from : @mattmurdock5424

17:20 the total dollars in the economy has grown astronomicallybrbrIt’s not JUST the interest rate, it’s the devaluation of currencybrbr40:35 dude Social Security devalues worker’s money for decades before they can touch it brbrThe value of their savings gets inflated away…brbrIf this were 1935 (when SS was introduced) and The US Dollar was still backed by gold, brit would make sense to hold cash for decades (because it would gain value)
Comment from : @Americansikkunt

49:22 why would you listen to a poor person on how to get rich? Obviously they have no idea lol
Comment from : @tao2sic

If I could make $40,000 while living with my significant other who makes $20,000 I’d be comfortable I also grew up poor so I dont have/need many essentials in life

Doesn’t matter how much money people make, they’ll find a way to squeeze people as much as possible Income goes up, prices go up

33:19 The smart thing to do when you have high interest credit card debt is to get the balance transferred to a new card with promotional 0 interest while paying down the debt If the debt isn’t all the way paid down by the end of the promo period, get the debt transferred to another card with a promotional 0 period… rinse and repeat It’s easy af The financial illiteracy of folks knows no bounds Play the game and bend the rules in your favor If credit assumes you’ll F up, don’t F up It’s easy

If you don't want the crippling college debt, find a school that's more affordable I see far too many people going to expensive universities for a degree from an institution most employers don't care about Look at job postings in the career / position you want and see what people who get hired have

Asmongold cmon pal, Biden passed the biggest spending bills, the inflation reduction act that did the opposite and increased inflation exponentially

I live in ct and 50k a year single is more than enough Bills are paid and money left over to either save or splurge
Comment from : @sir_quirkus7206

Even if you don't have enough yo buy a house outright, the more you put down the lower the interest rate, which severely lowers the cost of a house

Comment from : @ch33zusofpokemon25

I’m in the south and while I do agree times are tough I simply cannot accept that almost 250k per household is comfortable I make almost 1/4 of that and manage to live comfortably The problem is definitely there, and money is tight… but you can make it work I think a lot of my peers in gen Z WANT to over spend and not manage their finances Their definition of comfortable is “I can get everything I want” No way it’s even close to 200k Even Making 80-90k is very very good money to live on, and if you can’t manage to cover your bills AND have spending money left over on that income, you’re excessively spending to a ridiculous degree
Comment from : @ElbowSnot

while I disagree with their ideology completely on every level, I am a purest and believe it is their right to speak and organize as they please I would rather have them speak openly in public about their opinions and intentions than in secret it wasnt long ago the other side of the aisle was speaking awfully similar

It’s almost like adding millions of immigrants every year increases the demand for housing which pushes prices up since construction can’t keep pace…

Comment from : @necrosaro710

Tennessee, like Texas and Florida, has no income tax at the state level and is very conservative economically So they offer more than just that to people in higher tax brackets Point being, I grew up in Nashville and the same is true here Referring to the housing market in Nashville now They’ve legit turned most of the projects downtown into high rises and condos, so the folks from the projects have gotten pushed outside Nashville and into what were little farming communities when I was born, back in the 90s Hah It’s next to impossible for someone that grew up here to buy a house in the middle Tennessee area anymore The only reason I’m still here is because I was lucky enough to inherit a home It’s not the same city at all man, hah And most of it’s not a good change Tons of rich folks from LA and New York buying up all the property and pricing us out, just to try and change the city into a place they hated so much they left… What sense does that make??? You can’t have your cake and eat it too bro, if you like a city enough to move to it, leave it alone Don’t try to commandeer the local culture and pervert it into the place you just left cause it sucked so much… Idiots man

Comment from : @MrSkinWalkrMan

16:25 that's what i did My mom railroaded me into going to college instead of letting me take a year off and i ended up getting kicked out because I didn't know what i wanted to do at the time and therefore had no motivation to learn, especially since i went for a Liberal Arts degree at first because i had no idea what I wanted to do and that's the major they give you when you don't know what to pick Ended up switching to business which was better but still wasted most my time cause i wasn't allowed to make up my mind before attending college Thankfully i was only 20-25k in debt but i only made payment for about a year when i hit a rough patch and decided to stop paying it Sometime last year i believe it got dropped and now I don't owe a penny

Uhidk about the USA but in Canada the government will garnish wages and shit for student loans You can't just take a loan from the government, and not pay it They will take it back or throw you in jail
Comment from : @Ghotet

Just saying, Biden being incompetent and barely functional, can easily lead to your economy being shit That was a gross oversight in your logic I see the point, but it's invalid

Comment from : @OkieOrganix

Averages are not good representations of "most" The median number drives US incomes closer to 30-40k

I remember when they first raised prices to $125 and the lady in front of me said to cashier Ohh I don't mind it's only 25 cents more I said but it's actually 25 more and yes that's a lot more for example if it was going to be $100 it's now $125 Same math just bigger numbers But I sure do Wish my pay check would go up 25 lol
