“Feeling” like you live paycheck-to-paycheck and actually living paycheck to paycheck is not the same thing

[barnesnplebian]

This is what people call "first world problems"

[lemar]

If you make 6 figures and you're broke, I don't feel bad for you. It's people living off $50, 000 and doing fine. It's not the money, it's you.

[christopherwalsh]

This is the most rediculous news story in a long time

If you can’t manage your expenses with a 6 figure salary a 7 figure won’t change anything! Financial freedom = Living below your means

[harpergrace]

This is a disgrace to people who actually live pay check to pay check

[melissajordan]

If this isn’t the silliest thing I have ever heard. You feel like you are pay check to pay check because you are living outside of your means.

[annveronica]

They're highly educated, not smart yet.

[melaniejay]

300k is in no way living paycheck to paycheck. Utterly ridiculous people who haven't a clue what being broke really is.

[Gurlhmong]

If you’re making 6 figures and struggling then you’re living beyond your means.

[Tenny]

They want to live millionaire lifestyle with the 300k a yr income. Of course it is awesome pay but you need to live within your means, that simple.

[islandgirl]

Forget the Jones'... they're trying to keep up with the Kardashians.

[yippeeyokai]

If I were making 100, 000 a year I can pay off all my student loans in a few years.

[heirloomcottagedesigns]

You can make a million a year, but if you can’t manage it, it doesn’t matter…

[noahestus]

Couple who makes 300 k a year; “we don’t have much debt, but got a 10 k tax bill and it just really makes us feel like we’re struggling.”

[james]

Lattes, vape pens, Uber rides, eating out 3 times a day, new iPhones & hot yoga ain’t cheap💯🤣

[chrisbammer]

100k a year and living paycheck to paycheck?

That's your own damn fault for trying to live beyond your means.

[danielwill]

"Living below your means" adjust your lifest, be frugal, budget, save and invest. This helped me out as a 6 figure earner. I've grown over a million in retirement savings with this method.

[christopherwalsh]

" I had to save up two years for my Guccie belt" gurrrrl

This is really, really elitist. And the victimization is disgusting.
