lol I never said that. Though before the economic collapse happened in 2008, the cost of living was low enough to where if you made 50k annually it actually sustained some part of your life with a savings. Now that’s 20k above poverty and you can’t build a savings with 50k$, now 75k$ minimum is needed to build savings and live comfortably with a realistic figure being around 120k$, depending on where you are in the US.
this happened and we never recovered: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subprime_mortgage_crisis
So your claim is that things were perfect before 2008?
