To live where I work, and have a comfortable life I would need to earn 5x my current hourly income, working full time.
About $240,000 /year at $115 /hour.
Maybe I did the math wrong, or approximated my costs wrong.
But houses are about $500,000 , & rents are about $3,000 to $3,500
Monthly groceries is about $400 to $600.
Car insurance is about $200 / month.
Gas is about $100 / month.
Phone is about $80 / month.
Am I crazy, or stupid?
This doesn’t include luxuries, just the basic necessities.
