You're closer to the poors than the rich
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 29th, 2024 12:07 PM Author: marvelous depressive Lots of poasts here with a tone suggesting they’re rich because of earning a ‘relatively’ high salary in comparison to the country and that wealth is just a matter of time.
Quick reminder you’re much MUCH closer to average poors than the true wealthy and you will never reach their level and therefore should manage your perspective and not be fooled into thinking you can roll with the big boys.
To illustrate, I want to use a real life example of a household with income between 600-800k (two high earners) to show that even at this level of income, creating wealth is impossible.
Net income about 27k monthly
Mortgage: 8k
Utilities: 500
Nursery (one child): 2.5k
Nanny (both parents work full time demanding jobs): 3k
Car: 1k
Food: 2k
Clothes: 500
Holidays (avg monthly): 1.2k
Other spend: 2k
Total: 20k
This leaves just 7k for savings (3.5k pp). A lot of money sure but not exactly no-longer-need-to-work and can retire in a few years money. Obviously can save more in the good years but hopefully this illustrates how quickly money can go, especially when it’s self made with no family support.
A reminder that no matter how high you climb the income ladder, as long as you earn an income you are working class and have more in common with your fellow "average" workers than the capital-owning, generational wealthy “elite”.
How are you feeling now, you poors? |

It is not a measure of “providing value”
It is a measure of belonging to the social class above the tax cattle

Date: April 29th, 2024 2:28 PM Author: Histrionic copper property In my view it's not these people that you need to worry about (they are spending plenty). The problem is the household that makes $300k with a bunch of kids. Let's say $75k to taxes, leaves $225k. This household is then living on $6k/month by not spending on anything. That's $72k, and saving/investing $153k. That's about a 50% savings rate. This couple is so up on self-deprivation though that they burn out or, worse, they try to "retire early" as if that will solve their problems or fulfill them.
