Let’s run the numbers they rarely talk about.


A $92,000 salary sounds impressive.
After taxes? Around $59,000.
That’s roughly $4,900 a month.
Rent: $2,050
Car: $575
Insurance: $210
Utilities: $190
Phone: $95
Groceries: $460
Student loans: $390
You’re left with about $930.
Then someone from a boomer generation that bought homes for a fraction of today’s prices tells you to “just budget better.”
