My wife and I make like $75k combined in a tiny town in Northeast Pennsylvania. We own a home, I have a paid off truck, the Subaru is a year away from being paid off. Zero debt. We don't even own a credit card. $650/mo mortgage with 3% interest. And I get 3 day weekends every week. We eat out maybe 2-3 times per month. We make coffee at home. We can afford vacations and own an RV. This year I want to buy a side by side.

It is possible.

I say it all the time: "Move"

[TyneilMcNally]

his logic makes sense and then it doesn’t make sense. What a lot of people don’t understand that it’s not depending on where you live you’re not gonna get some resources medical care the regular other public resources and you’re not gonna make as much money depending on where you live. I live in Toronto Canada, if I were to move to another part in Canada, depending on the career path I chose, I wouldn’t make the same amount of money and no matter what career path I choose if I don’t live in, I live in a cold cheaper area. I’m not gonna get paid as much Then if I wanna travel, I wanna do this. I wanna do that. It’s gonna cost me more then I’m not gonna have family support. I’m not everything I’m gonna do. It’s gonna take more time more effort more everything so it sounds good in theory but a lot of time does not practical you have to pick up your whole life. You’re gonna move by yourself to a whole Nother part of the country or even out of the country altogether and start over sometimes they’re just not practical it just isn’t And you can’t live off of $45, 000 a year and I don’t understand how you have millionnaire friends and they’re struggling they’re stupid because they don’t. They could downside their life very easily if you have millionnaire friends right or people that are doing really really well for themselves and they’re struggling then they they are in a better position to down their lifestyle quicker than somebody else who’s making average income because again, what are resources are they gonna have Right and especially if they’ve been working for a job for a long time and is unionized or something that is stable then they would have depending on their age too. They would have to start over and the older you get the harder it is for you to get a job.

more than enough for me to live and create on the road into perpetuity

[HyestOnXBL]

Most places with a low cost of living arent paying what cities with higher costs of living are. Its the same no matter where ya go

[Wisdom_Vault_by_Max]

Exactly, money doesn’t make you happy, I am making over $300k and I am miserable right now, but changing it 1 video at a time 😊

[artan]

detached multi millionaire vibe. its expensive everywhere now because billionaires need more. thats a basic fact

[emilyc]

When you’re 18 you can wing 45k with 27 roommates, a beat up car and eating McDonalds but who wants to live that lifestyle., esp as an adult

[Alex-zzbh]

45k - 30% taxes - 9% sales tax which is in ny. you left with 27k - 15k rent = 12k to live off. do the math people.

[AmarD]

The job paying $100, 000 in New York is paying $50, 000 in a small town in Ohio. And that's assuming the job is available in that town.

[MikeeyChugz]

[FLOODOFSINS]

Why does he look so unknowing and validation-seeking?
