I love watching normie carhag/carfag compilations where Normies complain about how everything is too expensive.

I live on ~24k a year in a HCOL city making $26/hr
>$820 rent utilities included
>free transportation (fare fags aren’t checking train during my commute hours)
>$300/mo groceries (steak and potatoes mostly)
>$60/mo unlimited data
>$15/mo rent insurance
>$30 dental insurance *shrugs*

I regularly spend $8 on coffee, $15 on cigs, $30 dollars on pizza, and I STILL usually dump minimum $1500 a month into my brokerage account. Next month my credit limit will go from 12k>24k when I open another chase CC. I have 6 months expenses in a savings account and the equivalent in dry powder in my brokerage.

Being completely unstressed/concerned about money and whipping out my girthy 12k CL sapphire preferred card on cutie coffee sluts 4 times a week to order my $9 dollar 24oz drum of double chocolate mocha and then ripping a Newport 100 on a comfy bench while i enjoy my coffee is all the pleasure I need in this world

It's funny because I'm supposed to be an Europoor but my life standars is better than 99% of Americans lmfao.

I've never heard a single European complaining about debt. But you meet one of those Amerimutts that come to our continent for tourism or to teach English, and 5 minutes into the conversation they will start telling how how much in debt they are. BAFFLING.

I'm American. Envious, ungrateful, whiny, bitchy Americans are an embarrassment. It's really not hard to live here at all. The problem is almost every retard that lives here thinks you should be able to afford a 2,300 sqft house on 1 acre of land, while having a new Toyota Camry in the driveway and enough in savings to go on 2 - 3 week-long vacations a year after putting 15% into an investment account, all on a McDonald's wage, or a basic-bitch corporate cubicle job, while only working 30 hours a week (yes, even 40 hours is too much work for Americans now).

Most people live WAY above their means. It's just a mixture of low-IQ combined with a set of personality traits that make them susceptible to short-term thinking and hedonism. Then they beg for free-gibs from the government while producing less material goods and services. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out where this leads to.

I feel zero pity or sympathy for any of these people. Fuck them and their retarded choices.

It’s possible if you live in fucking Niggerville, MLK County. My friend (qt blonde white chick) got an internship in another city for 4 months. She decided, to save money, she’d get the cheapest studio apartment she could find.

She lived there for less than a month before a groid broke in, held her at gunpoint, and stole her TV. Surprisingly, he didn’t do anything else.

I love these

only about 8% of men in the draft pool were ever drafted to fight in vietnam. only a fraction of those men were drafted to fight in combat jobs (infantry, artillery, etc.)

Like 2% of boomer males went to Vietnam. The boomer generation ends in like 1964, so a lot of boomers came of age when Vietnam was winding down and missed it entirely.

Yeah, the vast majority of boomers never served in the military. In fact, they had like 50 straight years to go to war, and they said nah. But now that boomers are too old to serve, they’re perfectly fine with sending zoomers to fight the wars the boomers didn’t want to.
Like that hooknosed Rob Schneider. That 60 something faggot never served in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, etc, but now that he’s old as fuck, he wants zoomies to get blown to pieces by FPV drones on Kharg Island.

>Yes, once my grandparents died. They inherited it.
>so you guys are rich now?
My parents are rich. I don’t get shit from them cuz I’m a grown man, and I’ll never get an inheritance because boomers never die. My dad was talking about putting an elevator in his house. Boomers never run out of stupid toys to buy.

It's really not that hard. I make about $25k a year. Have 800+ credit score, get free flights from credit card sign up bonuses and spend like 6 months out of year on vacation.

I don't know how people are doing it, I earn above minimum wage as a europoor and I couldn't afford to live by myself so never left my parents.
If I was to live alone, of my salary:
70% would be rent/mortgage.
20% on food and transport
30% on local taxes
40% on bills you can't avoid (electricity, water, gas, etc)
Yes, the basics would be way above my entire salary each month.
This would be to just live in a prison cell sized place and never have any entertainment or any microscopic fragment of joy in life.

Living with your parents while working can be a powerful weapon. You should be using all that money you would waste on rent, on investing. If you do that, you will move ahead of the rest of the cattle and pretty fast.

Of course, if you use that money to buy anime figures or go and have beers with your friends, that is another question.

It’s not 2012 anymore boomer. Unlimited talk/text/data is the basic plan, and you save maybe 5 dollars going for anything less. Also, most people are running around with 3 year old iPhones and only upgrade when they get the (((free upgrade))) that locks them into the plan they were gonna continue paying for anyways.

The iPhone hasn’t gotten better in 8 years. Nobody cares about upgrading unless they’re just ready to switch to USB-C.

Basically me although a lot of it is fueled by my wife and children. Some of it is that I’m a spoiled entitled little bitch too though. I have about 30k in credit card debt but I have 70k in crypto which used to be mid six figures so I’m hoping we get back somewhere close to that level before I sell to pay the credit cards off. Obviously it’s a huge gamble at this point and the lower we go the harder it is to continue holding.

Nope, right here.

Rent is 820 and the rest is on the ole chase sapphire. So I can see exactly what I’m spending. Don’t go too crazy trying to hone in on any particular number for my coffee budget or cigs etc. the bottom line is I spend about 2k a month on everything incl. rent.

It’s a 120sqft “””efficiency””” studio that’s why the rent is so cheap in this HCOL city.

Well then clearly he doesn't live off 24k a year since his expenses alone are more than that. After taxes he's bringing in probably around 48k, and his margin of error for spending is super low. I highly doubt he's being real as a smoking habit would easily eat into any excess funds he has.

Are you old and retarded? You can get a smartphone for like 300 bucks that will last 5 years. And jobs expect you to have them. Your bank uses apps, your job will use a app for timekeeping, you will get emails with paperwork to fill out before end of the day with a digital signature. It is a source of music vs cds dvds and a player, it gets rid of the maps on your car you used to have to buy, you don't need to buy a watch, etc.... literally for 300 bucks. For a device that your will be paying the bulk of the monthly for just a basic phone. Unlimited for me is 35$/month. 3 gigs was like 25$ which is the plan i would use if i had a flip phone. Ffs you can get a free smartphone if you are on ebt. If people took your advice, they would probably end up with shitty assets and the inability to be hired anywhere but starbucks or under the table garbage.

Not my problem. I don't work a wagie job.

Why pay subscription fees for music when I can load up an old iPod with all the music I want and can listen to it all without an internet connection
> it gets rid of the maps on your car you used to have to buy
GPS devices for cars exist. They're often more accurate and lower cost.
> you don't need to buy a watch
Watches are based. Only Zoomers and thirdies think otherwise.
