[quote=Anonymous]Stop blowing smoke up my arse trying to claim $275k hhi is just fine and dandy these days.  It is not.  We are friggin dinks with virtually no debt except our mortgage on a very modest $625k home.  We rake in $275k and are super middle class, it’s insane.  Right now driving an 8 year old cheap Mazda 3 bought for $20k snd is paid off.  I dread the day we need a new car, because a new car payment will place huge strain on our finances.  I think we can only afford a Toyota sedan next.  You’d think dinks making almost $300k could afford an Audi these days, but nope.  Car insurance, home insurance, taxes, groceries……all of it demolishes you.  We only take 1 vacation too per year.

Ok, we might tread water, I’ll give you that. But we aren’t THRIVING.  I feel like you’ll only thrive on a $500k income these days.  And that’s only from a DINK perspective!  I dunno how everyone else who is poorer AND has kids survives.  You all survive on malk and beans? Who knew the American dream for family people meant a life of brittle bones and cutting coupons, lol. Prices are so outta control. It is bonkers. [/quote]
