Even a family with 500,000 dollars per year isn’t just enough to survive on.
Let’s go Brandon
Then how are we surviving fine on less?
i make 37k a year and im fine
but i dont have two kids
I get the point, but there's 18 thousand per year going to charity, and 36 thousand going to savings. Not the best breakdown to make a case. That alone is more than half the country makes each year. Find a better infographic.
I know this is a meme post but,
>1.5mil mortgage
>$18k in charity
>3, $6k vacations a year
> $10k in clothes
>Still maxing out 401k
>Still has $7300 take home
That's not average, it's poor spending habits with immaculate wealth. Fuck these people and fuck this article.
>maxing out both 401ks
>losing FORTY PERCENT OF YOUR INCOME TO THE FEDS!!!!!!!!!
>paying for childcare rather than rearing your own offspring
>1.5M home
>three vacations a year
>Beamer/High end Toyota
>Almost $10k a year on clothes
>18k to charity
I haven't taken a vacation for four years and my car is ten years old, live within your means jfc
Agreed.
Look how poor these people are on paper after taking three vacations every year.
What a retarded fucking thread. There is nothing average about living in a 1.5 million dollar home. There is nothing average about saving more money than most people make in a year. There is nothing average about donating more money thank a sizable portion of people make in a year. The average American has probably never contributed to an IRA before. I hate CNBC kikes and I hate OP
Actual middle class people understand this. Trust fund ivory tower leftoids think they deserve something for being a good person.
Kill whoever wrote this article, they are the problem.
Whith that income, is it necessary to have so much debt?
Why are Americans so much into debt?
$500k is 1%, real life 1%er to spend their money like this. They always make bank and if they’re smart enough to earn $500k they’re smart enough to invest to earn more.
Do they at least admit this is what is stopping this couple (and the middle class in general) from achieving real wealth?
>There is nothing average about living in a 1.5 million dollar home
So a normal house?
How is “Brandon” responsible for a budget made in 2019? MAGAs are so fuckin dumb
Have they tried not being poor?
In a decent neighboorhood in an actual city 1.5 mil buys you a bungalow. Also wanting to actually retire someday is fairly reasonable
google.com
This is what $1million got you in 2019, the same year the picture is from. These are not normal homes, and depending on the area, that money would get you an estate.

>36 thousand going to savings
You forgot the 7,300 left over and the 60,000 mortgage amortization and interest in a low interest rate environment (most of this is equity in the home). Basically they are saving almost $100k a year and they took three $6k vacations and donated $18k to charity. But 40% taxation is rape.

>not ranked from biggest to lowest values
Not gonna read that, it gives me headache
>5000 on gas
obviously this needs to be updated.
