Bitch I could do that easily with $200k/year. You're just bad with money.
My family does this with barely over 100k. I commute half an hour each way, but I don't need to be a millionaire just to afford food. City dwellers dig their own graves voluntarily and then blame "capitalism" for their own bad decisions.
Capitalism is, indeed, the source of their problems. If they were starving in a gulag somewhere under communism, the lack of rainbows on crosswalks wouldn't be even in the farthest reaches of "a problem" for them anymore.
But muh ethnic yumyums.
Amen
Definitely if you live outside of a major metropolitan area
The trick is to make metropolitan area levels of money while living elsewhere. I don't know how you pull that off short of hanging on to a really good remote job, of which there are a finite number.
Most companies adjust pay based on where the worker lives. That's what happened to me when I went remote. Took a 30% pay cut.
Long commute. Before I was remote I drove 45 minutes each way. But you gotta do what you gotta do, it was good money and really good cost of living. Got a nice 4 bedroom with 2.5 acres for $155k.
Sales bitch.
