>tfw you realize that 300k income is the new 100k, 3 million net worth is the new 1 million
The six figure salary meme has been around a few decades probably since at least 1980. Back then to make at least 100k a year you had to have been a doctor or high powered lawyer. Most college grads were making low to mid 20k's back then, a senior engineer or accountant might make 60k. A house cost 100k or so.
Six figures in the 80's was an aspirational amount, but today it's the bare minimum to be considered middle class. A 100-200k income isn't out of the ordinary at all, you wouldn't even be part of the six figure club if you were born 20 years earlier.

Uh wrong, OP.

You poorfags with your poorfag 300k a year lifestyles disgust me

130k is the poverty line in SF. I live on the east coast. Where I live the most you can afford to buy on a 100k salary is a small condo.
Matthew Bennett
here i was, fresh out of college, ecstatic that i had made barely $50k through crypto over the last year this is ultimate black pill material
Benjamin Martin
maybe it's not enough if you have to settle on being in the top 2% instead of 1%
Nathaniel Bell
This is correct
Anyone who disagrees is a poor loser or a troll.
Angel Moore
How about moving into a place without overpriced bs
How much did you inherit? also you will not make it if you didnt.
Cooper Thompson
Yep.
Unless you live in the middle of nowhere, $100k is not a lot of money anymore.
I live with my GF and we both drive used Honda's. Together our household income is $100k and it feels like we are fucking broke. If we're lucky we'll take one vacation this year.
