I was just reading this topic and thinking, why doesn't anyone bring up the fact that there's just not enough room for everyone to make $75k? All companies are hierarchies. Some baby boomer could be retiring and there could be like 10 millennials, all with twice the qualifications or more competing for his spot. 9 of them have to lose. That's the way it is. Time to stop telling people to 'just work hard' and acknowledge the reality of things. Do you want to stroke yourself by being better than other people or are you okay with everyone being happy? I would rather everyone be happy and take a little from the super rich so we can advance society. I like Jordan Peterson for reminding me of these hierarchies over and over again, and I'm definitely not a conservative. But I like him for that. $75k is a stretch to be considered 'happy.' I would just need $40k or so for that I think. But I would like to have that extra money to save for vacations, etc.

I live in the Midwest so that number is about $50-60k.

$75k seems completely reasonable as a national average.

I'm guessing something like this is the reason.

no actually that figure is a modest amount for having a family with your wife being part time or stay at home to properly raise your children. happiness is heavily tied to having a family and that costs much more money than a bachelor living it up by himself with 50k or less.

Nah, it's just that I think this needs more attention than it would get by posting in that topic.

Lol I blame it on Rick Snyder. He's governor, and Schuette will not be the next governor lol. The Republican party is going to die in the relatively new future, or become something entirely different.
