Yeah, as a tech worker basically all of the other "henry"s that I know are a step or two above r/malelivingspaces levels of asceticism, with maybe one slightly expensive hobby like mechanical keyboards, MTG, or keeping aquariums. Any major spending that they do is like... buying an apartment/house, paying off their student loans, or eating out semi-regularly. So uh, good luck to the capitalists I guess?
With inflation, 100k in 2022 has the same purchasing power as something like 45k in 1990. A lot of who capitalists target as being "high earners" are just more like the remnants of the quote-unquote middle class that's been utterly destroyed by neoliberalism over the last 30 years
