Yeah I was gonna say. I didn’t understand what people were complaining about, that’s loads of money to me. I know stuff’s more expensive in the US but it’s not that much more expensive that 100k isn’t an insane amount of money to live off.
100k/12≈8k, including taxes, after taxes idk depends where you live. My rent is the majority of my income, and I make much less than that, so the absolute amount of money I have after paying for things like rent and utilities, to spend on food, is much less too, even if we assume the same % of income going to rent. Again I’m not saying things aren’t more expensive in the US, but it is still a lot of money. You aren’t going to be struggling financially. My friends in the US make much less than that. Maybe you’d be less well-off than peers who do the same job, but I hope you realise that for a lot of people elsewhere in the world, that’d be 3 salaries already.
Yeah its not a bad pay, my wife makes close to that amount, I make less and we were able to buy a house after we split the mortgage with her parents, instead of them renting, and us renting, we teamed up and split the house.
we are comfortable just a bit cramped. We converted the garage to a kitchen/ living room and we get one bedroom. In laws with their kids get three rooms and the living room and kitchen.
now we just have to deal with the two hour commute a day, my job offers free ev charging so that saves us about $500 a month we used to spend on gas.
You aren’t going to get close to that amount per month after taxes and health care. Its definitely not minimum wage, its around a teacher salary, or entry level office worker
in the rest of the world that is basically a three-job salary.

That’s about 5-6k a month pay, with rent around 3-4k a month

It’s USD 8333 per month, or EUR 7177. I wouldn’t say 3 jobs, but pretty good even if it has to feed a whole family and/or taxes are high.
