@dailymail: Even Americans earning more than $500,000 a year are feeling the financial squeeze, with more than a third saying they're living paycheck to paycheck, according to a new Goldman Sachs survey. The report found that 36.6% of households earning above $500,000 primarily rely on each paycheck to cover expenses, a higher share than almost every other income group. Rising costs for housing, health care, education and everyday essentials are putting pressure on household budgets, leaving many people with less money to save. The survey also found that the share of working respondents who increased their retirement savings dropped from 55% in 2025 to 39% in 2026. #america #usa #work #career #money

You make money, you afford a certain lifestyle and then it catches up. More money, more taxes and expenses. If you don’t balance it correctly you’re screwed. I bring in over $300k/yr but after taxes, mortgage, tuition payments, cost of living I’m saving nothing. It’s all a trade off. Could I move somewhere cheaper? Sure. But then I’m trading expenses for good education for my kids. I don’t drive expensive cars either and I don’t live in some mega mansion. But it all adds up.you make money and make big money decisions. So I guess it’s a decision from the beginning. Don’t adjust your lifestyle, otherwise that ish will come and get you.

If $500k a year isn’t enough to make ends meet, maybe the issue isn’t the economy. Maybe it’s the lifestyle.
