    My sister and her husband make $65k a year each and they’re living paycheck to paycheck. If $130k a year doesn’t pay for a mortgage, car payments, and raising your kids, what are we even bothering for?

      You’re right, but also that number could be $180k and I doubt you’d see much difference, they’d have more expensive cars, maybe a nicer house, and take a fancy vacation but still be at the same place at the end of the month. Not to detracg from the cost of living crisis, just that some of it is simply the lifestyles we choose to spend on
