Like ever? I feel like it’s almost guaranteed the more money the worse you become. I know this isn’t very dialectic but it’s true.

I don't know what you're on about. I would live like a king on 120k.
Like a king? If you're in any of the decent cities in America you're paying rent.
I'm paying rent now, not in the U.S. but in a major metropolitan city that easily stands with the likes of New York and L.A., and I make a fraction of 120k. Less than half, less than a third. So, yes, I would live like a king. Americans pretending that that isn't a fuckton of money are delusional.
I mean if you're not American then it's a different amount of money, functionally. If I get injured and spend your salary on a doctor's visit Im not feeling very royal. You don't have to call people delusional, congratulations on not living in hell country I guess. Happy for you, my dude.
Uhhhh? I don't live in the U.S. but I still live in hell, it's hell nearly everywhere, most of my paycheck still goes to rent. 120k is still 120k, and whether it's dollars, euros, or pounds, it's still a ridiculous amount of money. Delusional is the only appropriate word for someone claiming that isn't wealthy, I genuinely cannot fathom the thought.
Part of the way some end up making that money is through college which can set you up with substantial debt. I know many people who get degrees also make significantly less than that and why I don't think anyone making 120k could really say they're "poor" but they could also be living paycheck to paycheck based on monthly rent, loans, and car/transportation in the wrong city
lol so many offended people trying to disagree with you here
even 100k in SF, LA, NYC is a truckload of money
I’m America, most of that 120K goes towards taxes to the military industrial complex and to subsidize private corporations
Yes, meanwhile in other countries we pay no taxes. Americans are baffling.
At least some of your taxes go towards your healthcare or funding education
Depends on where you live. And if you have a family
lol same I take home 27k (I live in the US). It's really funny to be how subjective "rich" is to people. To be clear I don't necessarily think that 100k is "rich", but very well to do. I will likely never make that much money in my lifetime. My dream even is to make like 60k.
