Less than .5% of people don't dictate if it's cheap or expensive. Our truck drivers make more than doctors in every country in the world besides 10ish. You can make 70k here pretty easy even if you're uneducated..
70k is barely getting by in most cities my friend. You’ve obviously never seen people struggling to get by. Tell me how you can support a wife and 2 kids off $70k.
My bad I didn't know your city was the entire country of America? Oops haha my mistake.
Everyone in my family is making around that. Even less actually.
My brother has 2 kids a house, two cars, a motorcycle, goes to Florida or vegas every few years. So clearly it's possible.
You don't understand how privileged you are, most of the world lives with their parents until they get married. Car ownership rates are extremely low. A gaming PC is a luxury, leaving the country is extremely rare. If America lived like most of the world most of the world would have tens of thousands of dollars saved. If you can't survive on 70k a year in 90% of America and you don't have medical issues, it's a you problem.

That’s not always true. Some people are working 3 jobs to get by.
