I thought I was living comfortably until I watched this video. Now i realize I'm living as a minimalist

[buffalobill]

So what you're saying is that even the cheapest state is incredibly higher than the median household income. Basically only the upper class is living comfortably

[buffycat]

Sorry Briggs these numbers seem way too high. I live in GA, single and have an income of about $65, 000 a year. I live very comfortably. Even though I am retired I save money every month, and take at least 2 nice vacations a year. I don’t live in a mansion but a nice home on half an acre in the mountains.

[chinadarby]

I'm glad to read some of these other comments. I was beginning to think I should just go live under a rock.

[MikeAaron]

This is why Americans are struggling everywhere. It shouldn't take $38 per hour to live comfortably in West Virginia!

[renegadetenor]

Perhaps do a video on how actual people live on half or less than these numbers, but still get by and look to the casual observer, pretty normal?

[italiandiva]

Are you kidding with these numbers, how many single people do you know who makes $80.000. And a family of 4, $180, 000. These are not realistic numbers

[WWeronko]

A family needs $189, 000 to live comfortably in West Virginia?! Come on. As of 2024, the median household income in West Virginia is approximately $52, 719​. I guess by those numbers very few people in West Virginia are comfortable. From data I can find approximately only 9.85% of households in West Virginia have an income over $150, 000. ​

[AmandaSchnaare]

We are a family of 5 IN TEXAS that live off of ONE SALARY which is around 72k-78k annually. We are VERY comfortable. Broke AF but comfortable.

[Rutabega_NG]

So, just curious, does your version of "comfortably" include gold-plated toilets, a private lake and regular international travel? Because based on this, I couldn't afford to live comfortably in West Virginia, let alone the state where I actually live.

What are these salaries actually based on? I need a better definition of "comfortably" than what you're giving here because this one does not track

[evelynrogers]

I own my home. No mortgage, no car payment. I live on $13, 000 a year . Retired in Indiana

[normanwyatt]

I live near BOSTON and my wife and I are living on pensions totalling $45, 000 A year. Our car is 20 years old and we have to skimp on
our trips to the supermarket. I haven't been to a mid-priced restaurant in almost 5 years. Lobster Roll, forget it. We buy all the cheap
food to exist and no food stamps, no clothing allowence, no free housing, etc.

[WhenITraveled]

Hey man great video!
I suggest making the same video but how much you need to live “uncomfortably” or basically bare minimum to not be homeless and starving.
Problem is most people don’t make this kind of money and living “comfortably” is unattainable in the current state of things.

[Winterxfiles]

We live in the most prosperous nation in the world. Housing, food, and healthcare should be covered period. No one makes enough to live and companies are forcing financial slavery on us.

[Arthamus]

When he said the lowest state was almost double my current income I knew I was cooked 😏

[cyberinsecuregaming]

As a Michigan resident, I can tell you that almost no one makes anywhere close to $40/hr. You'd be very fortunate to make above $30/hr. I think your stats were a bit flawed in this one because I could probably live comfortably on $25/hr; would be more like $20 if it wasn't for my student loan debt.

[KathleenCernetich]

Live in Nevada I thought I was doing all right until I listen to this now I feel like I'm broke

[tg]

I understand the methodology but there are so many variables and what stage in life you're in. Going but just my salary for my family of 4, I could barely afford WV! But in my 50's with 30+ years of building wealth and selling a few homes for more than I bought them, definitely needing a lot less to be comfortable.

I'm guessing this is for a single person or family living only off their current income.

Still good info, thanks Briggs!

[the_all_blue_does_exist]

As someone whose made terrible life choices at 30 almost 31, this video is gonna be depressing. If you're a failure like me then hit that like button 😂.

[NursePeter]

How many people make the amounts listed per year?
