Thanks. I perhaps should have said I don't have many folks on the $300k side of things to compare against the $30k folks. I do know people in the $30k area, and yeah... you're spot on. And... while a few I know are just sort of 'content'(?) where they're at, most I know are wanting to "get ahead" but seem stuck - family/kids, long work hours... it's not impossible to do more, but often physically... almost impossible. Go back to school and take more classes to hope to get a new degree in 2-3 years? With 3 little kids, two adults working 4 jobs, 1 car which breaks down a lot... yeah, it gets hard to see any easy way out of that.
I tell that scenario and get people saying "doesn't matter, get out there, make it happen!" and... yeah - we all know some success stories who succeeded against the odds, but... we all know someone like that because it's still fairly remarkable in the first place.
