That's not how that works at all. The middle class is nearly extinct but somewhere around $100k you can attain that not worrying about money status, even buy a humble home. But you're not even close to rich.
I don’t need to be told I’m not rich. I can’t afford my groceries every week. And I’m single, and I certainly don’t make $100,000 a year or anything close to it.
I also don’t need to be told “how it works“. Because I’m living in a system that’s beating me to death every week when I can’t afford to live.
And I know plenty of people who make around $100,000 a year and still can barely afford to pay their mortgage, afford to feed their families, etc. So don’t tell me “how it works” when you clearly don’t understand it yourself. And you sure as fuck don’t know a goddamn thing about my life.
The arrogance of some random Internet stranger, trying to tell me how my own life works… Wow
