I guess I'd have to make some sacrifices, but I'd find a way to scrape by on that

That's not enough money. So I continue to work.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

I would not work a single fucking day lmao

I would go to some low col area where 150k is more like 200-300k and eat great food, spend my time by the beach and maybe take up a hobby like cooking or learning a language.

I'd use the money to get better at shooting. Maybe even become a national level dude.

That, or just peace out to the woods.

Not even misc e-stating on this one. Just go look at the homes available. You can maybe afford a $700k house with $150k salary. I would consider my parents upper-middle class and their house is $1.1 mil
Depends entirely on whether you're talking single income or dual income.

No it doesn't.

If you're in here suggesting dual income then that's 2 150k salaries for 300k. OP specifically said your income is $150k. Not 2 $150k salaries.

But if you want to make it dual income all you're doing is agreeing with me that household income needs to be $300k to be upper-middle class.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Yeah but you can everywhere else in the state. Every other major city outside of the Tri-County area has LCOL suburbs, you'd never have to work another day in your life and neither would your wife deadfuknsrs.
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

$150k as a single person is very comfortable. As a family that is struggling in desirable parts of the country.

I would say $300k is a reasonable expectation to have a comfortable family life.

I have no debt, don't need an expensive car and don't feel the need to keep up with the Jones so I'd be balling on $150K.
