Those are RICH people!

Who gives a fuck about rich people again!

$200,000 fucking thousand dollars?!

A HUNDRED thousand fucking dollars is RICH!

What about the 80% or more that don't even make near $50,000?

1. Not here in NYC...
believe me, even if you make $200K here in the city (and its suburbs) you are barely making it...

8. You need to talk to some people who make $30,000
You probably can't line in a Manhattan HR, but you sure can live in NYC on less than $200,000!

3. It really depends on where you live
There are many areas where you can make 150/175k a year yet be pretty solidly middle-class in your area, and struggle on 50k... while in some areas you can make 50/60k a year and be solidly middle-class and be downright wealthy on 150/175k.
