And this habit is what keeps us on the treadmill of work work work because we can’t afford to stop: we think we need all this crap and the only way to get it (and replace it every 3 years) is to work more.
- Ylpertnodi 3y agoI don't own much, but I do gotta pay a mortgage for where I don't keep it.
- ornornor 3y agoSure, I was saying you can live on a third of a paycheck or you can live on 150% of a paycheck. One gives you quite a bit more freedom than the other (numbers arbitrary but you hopefully get the idea)
- chefandy 3y agoPeople say you can live on 1/3 of a paycheck but is that really true? No matter how clever I got with my cuts, I could never trim that much without losing either the payment information or signature line.
- BehindBlueEyes 3y agoDepends a lot on the size pf the paycheck. You can live on half a paycheck if you earn at least 6 figures and don’t have student loans. Most people i know who make 6 figures wouldn’t want to live that lifestyle though.
- chefandy 3y agoIn most cases would be harder when making 6 figures, though that probably depends on the font size. I don't see how student loans play into this.
- ornornor 3y agoLike I said, actual numbers vary I was just illustrating with an arbitrary 1/3 and 150%. Generally speaking, tend towards 0 rather than infinity.
