Wanted to add, “Fuck Cars!!”
Car payments for decades of one’s life are not the way to go.

Uh, if you’re struggling making $150k a year you’re just piss poor at managing money. My wife and I make less than that and have almost paid off everything and we are about to go pay cash for a new vehicle in the $70k range.
Wtf are those goons doing?!?
Yes and no. I lived in the Bay Area of California, 150k salary would not fly in some parts. Fifteen years ago I knew a gal in college that lived in SF, she and 3 others were splitting $5k a month for a pretty standard 3/2 house.
I now live in small town Texas (much happier). For $150k a year I could live like a king.
150k for a family is not that much in california, especially if its two people working for a combined 150k.
Having medical problems. Paying for kids in college. Surviving past financial mistakes they made when they were younger and not as informed.
Or trying to live meagerly in California.
