    I mean, we’re poor but we make less than half that just outside San Francisco. Honestly we’re doing okay. We don’t get any of the luxuries my parents had at our age, but we have smartphones so we can never get away from anything!

          probably should have put that in your original comment tbh. You implied one can make it on ~$70k near SF as if your bills were 1:1
