The regular text or the bold? Regular text, somewhat. Bold, No.
My face after reading EY1s comment 🤣🙆🏾♀️🫠
Depends in the geography. Bold text is correct for the Bay Area. Although I don’t think anything sub 400k has been considered rich since the 80s.
The crazy part is that the fed told us they KNEW minimum wages were currently half of what they need to be.
Everyone that made 75K or less received a stimulus check.
Minimum wage, today, needs to be set at 75K based on inflation and the rising cost of living.
A2 we are aligned on what the average American makes. I just looked up right now, the average American makes about 59K - keep in mind, those numbers dwindle when you look and black and brown folk.
My point was that the government KNEW that everyone needed to at least be at 75K to weather the storm. That’s where they set the bar to say “hey these folks will need some help”.
There was a time where I thought 75K was pay bills and go on vacation money, and it was 15- 20 years ago, that’s not the case today. 75K is enough to to keep the lights on, a roof over your head, and live on a tight grocery budget.
The point about $75 going far in most of the country yes, and without looking at the link you sent me, my guess is 75K goes far in the parts of the country that are furthers away from city centers, places with terrible school public schooling and transport systems, and come with an unbearable commute. They are areas people tend to leave vs flock to for their career ambitions. 🤷♀️
I believe that if you wake up every day and go to a job that requires 40+ hours of your time a week, you should make $75K minimum, everyone else’s salaries should be adjusted accordingly too.
There’s no reason why we have normalized people with full time jobs still being able to apply for and get benefits, or statements like “most Americans are one paycheck away from being homeless”.
Ew, no. Someone making 300k+ is just “surviving” and not “middle class”?! These are the posts that make fishbowl toxic. People need to get a grip.
AFS1– we’re from the DR 😬 it’s not really a “trip” for us but thanks for the tip! Trips will happen eventually just not something we are able to do regularly as a family of 4. Before kids we were avid travelers but after kids, moving to the area we’re in and after buying our house, there have been a lot we had to sacrifice to live a somewhat comfortable life on a budget.
Yes
Yes, but also this is just sad. 🥴😒
Middle class just means you need a budget and you have to stick with it. I live in NYC and have gone from $80k - $250k in 10 years. You make different choices at each level but I was always able to afford dinners out and trips every year because I named my money and it had a purpose.
$200k is the new “making six figures”
Upper poor 🤣💀
Being in the category, I definitely identify as upper poor 😅
Yep. This fits.
In la yes
Yes!

This is 💯 the US and so warped. The EU is completely different and having to recently accept a salary that is 60% below normal earning capacity was a bitter pill to swallow.
The average annual salary in the EU in 2023 varied across countries. According to Eurostat data from 2022, the highest paying countries included Switzerland (€106,839), Iceland (€81,942), Luxembourg (€79,903), Norway (€74,506), and Belgium (€70,297). On the other hand, the lowest paying countries were Bulgaria (€12,923), Romania (€14,500), Croatia (€17,842), Hungary (€18,274), and Poland (€18,114)
The average annual salary for single employees without children in the EU was €26,136 in 2023. Working couples with two children had an average annual salary of €55,573.
Unfortunately yes. I'm barely making ends meet at $72K
Is this household income or solo…definitely surviving in Bay Area *cries in champagne problems*
Depends on what you would be paying me. 😂
This is both accurate and sad 😂
The unbold is semi-accurate for Texas, but not completely.
