I had just graduated with a masters, went to work for a big tech company. We bought a 1500 ft^2 house, were driving junky cars, paying a ton of taxes and paying off student loans. The people across the street had cash jobs, drove brand new cars, and collected every kind of welfare known to man, including school lunches for all their spawn. Maddening.
congrats you're a smart man. I think the majority of Americans, who have been living and spending above their needs, will be in for a real hurt within a few months. Shaking my head for years that people weren't preparing for this and even those with high incomes.
