How anyone making $100k can be considered "poor" is beyond me.
No wonder everyone on the West coast thinks being a Millennial sucks.
- racl101 6y agoJust like how you can live in a castle in middle America that costs $250K. It's just part and parcel of living where everyone else wants to live.
- war1025 6y agoAs someone in middle America with a not-quite castle that I paid $100k for, I'm perfectly happy with that trade off I guess.

- munificent 6y ago> where everyone else wants to live. Another way to say that is "where the jobs are".
- srtjstjsj 6y agoAre people in the Middle/South getting jobs?
- war1025 6y agoI live in Iowa. At least in my peer group people seem to be doing pretty well. From my perspective here, Millennials aren't having any harder of a time integrating into society than anyone before them did.
- throwaway0a5e 6y agoSame here. The rust belt cities across the northeast and stretching into the Midwest don't seem to be doing that bad either. I see the "jobs in places not SF or NYC" situation as kind of like how the people who spend MSRP minus $2k for a 5yo 4Runner feel the need to loudly proclaim how everything else is crap because they have this massive sunk cost they need to justify to themselves. All I know is my car starts every morning and I'm not making payments on it.
