The economy is only doing well if you are in the top 10%. For everybody else, not so much.
because people do not know how to save and we live in an instant gratification society. 75 to 80 percent of the country lives paycheck to paycheck, no matter how the economy is doing.
So you’re just going to ignore the basic facts about the cost of living all over the country? For a matter of perspective, the well-paid engineers working for Google cant afford to live by themselves and must roommate in groups because the cost of living in San Francisco is astronomical in comparison.
Then do not live in SanFran.
What am I supposed to do about the high cost of living in SanFran?
For that matter...why is the cost of living there so high?
Lol living somewhere cheap and making a comfortable living is relatively rare if you are in the bottom 90% of earners.
Then get out of the 90%. My wife and I went from the 2nd 20% to the top 10% of income earners in less than 5 years. It can be done with some hard work and determination.
Lol good god dude. Obviously it isn’t even mathematically possible for most people in the bottom 90% to become the top 10% because then it would no longer be the 10% lol. The reason why wages are so low for most workers is because corporations maximize profit by spending as little as they can legally get away with on their labor force. That’s just inherent flaw in capitalism.
