HCOL
My dad made around this amount in SF Bay Area and we made do, including a big mortgage payment, car payments, etc.
150K is a lot of money
In 2024?
He made 130K a some years ago, which is only a bit over 150K in 2024 money
Uh huh..
Just because you had to live in a neighborhood with $5000/month rent doesn't mean you're poor just because you piss your money away. A doctor with no money leftover every month isn't poor, he's just retarded.
That’s the thing about HCOL areas, they generally don’t pay well, either.
