[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I made $60k out of school at 22 as an engineer. I paid $1k with no roommates bought a Toyota then too. No parent help with expenses but they helped with college so no loans and that was a big deal. We hire for 65-70 now. Engineers. Without many other expenses they can afford $2 for rent esp if they have no loans. [/quote] This is key. The only way you can do this is if you have no student debt to pay back. Then you can actually use your salary to pay for your life instead of servicing debt. I'm guessing many of us who couldn't do this were saddled by debt and low-paying jobs right after college.
