@@rainbowskies5796 taxes have never been above 40% at the highest marginal rate in this century. It would’ve been impossible for you to pay “over half your income” in taxes. I make $180k and pay less than 34% aggregate taxes-10% of which goes to local and state level taxes (living in NYC). The effective federal tax rate for $180k is 19%… WAY lower than any other country or any whining fool like you would have people believe. In my opinion it is criminally low-that is why NYC and the New York government must have their own separate income taxes. Our federal government takes in far less revenue as a percent of GDP than our OECD peers.

I’m going to put this out here. If you’re fresh out of college and you’ve managed to get a 6 figure job in the most expensive city in the US, pay for all of your expenses and still have disposable income. You’re fine. Within a couple of years she’ll be able to get a promotion, which will allow her to pay off her debts a lot faster. Eventually she’ll find a partner and the two of them can share expenses together. If she’s even mildly disciplined with her money she can put even an indiscernible amount of money into investing of any kind and will get good returns. I do get it, NYC is stressful and expensive, but she’s still living very well. Before she even turns 30 she’s going to be doing better than the average American.

I mean I live in new york and I understand the frustration of it being expensive but complaining about affordability on 180k a year as a single adult is pretty funny and out of touch. Let's say she spends half of that 3k disposable income, then she can put away 1.5k to retirement + the other 2k that is automatically going to retirement from her paycheck so 3.5k saved every single month. She's putting away most people's annual income to savings / retirement every year.

It's disingenuous to say you only take home 7k a month when she likely takes home 10k+ and just invests 3k of it.

When I end up getting a good salary, content like this prepares me not to overspend on luxuries if I want to sustain financial health. Honestly I think she is pointing out how insane NYC life is that you need to make that much to not be living paycheck to paycheck

I know some people are salty. But she makes a good point. Our parents making 180k and us making 180k are not the same. Our money simply doesnt go as far. And if your factor in utitlities, transportation costs, insurance, food, and any medical costs. 3000$ becomes more like $1500 disposable, and hopefully she saves something outside of retirment lets say 500 a month. Thats 1000$ of truly “disposable” income. Now is that something to appreciate and be proud of? Absolutely. Do people make do on SIGNIFICANTLY less, absolutely they do. But I think the overall point is how we go to school thinking 100k a year is like a shit ton of money, when in reality it doesnt hit quite like that

The 10k/mo assumption already accounts for taxes. $7,000/mo is $84k/year. You're not paying almost 40k to retirement unless you're putting 30k in a roth backdoor or something. In which case this is just misleading because you're still earning the money, it's just going directly to savings. They probably earn bonuses that aren't paid through monthly salary.

Thing is as a person who lives with a parent who makes 10 thousand under the poverty rate in nyc she probably lives in a flat or condo where rent is higher. Not saying she shouldn’t but she could sacrifice the living commodity for a 1 bedroom or a private room for roughly 1000-1500 a month and still have from 500-1000 in extra disposable income. With 3-4k in disposable income she could reasonably pay for food for one person with about 200. She could then reasonably invest a 1000 a month and still walk away with 1-2k for spending on herself. This is assuming she lives alone it’s still not a bad deal in comparison to most people to nyc.

And that, I presume, does not factor deferred income (IRA).
