This sounds so ridiculous to me coming from germany, 100k/year are a goddamn lot here.100k is a lot if you get it all at once, but spread over a year it's not all that impressive. Redditors think this guy has 100k in his bank account at any one time. An actual adult with bills and a home and a decent car and insurance would find that 100k gets eaten away pretty fast.
I remember when first I moved out and went to a big city, I felt like Billy big bollocks with my savings account with 10,000 odd and a steady income. After a month or two of rent and bills and groceries and bus passes I found out that life is expensive. The fact that redditors are asking a guy who makes 100k for money just implies to me that they don't live on their own/provide for themselves in a sustainable manner.
Its enough for a friend of mine as an income for a family of five, three cars and multiple vacations over the year. And he still saves up about 1.5k a month.
Aside from health insurance being cheaper which is around 800€ for his family, I dont even know why living in america is so expensive, doesnt america have the reputation of being super cheap?
