Going to the best fresh water beach is like fucking the hottest fat chick at the bar. Sure you’re getting laid, but it just doesn’t feel right. ---

> [@Quattro Krant](#): > > That is even worse as how the fuck are you going to survive on less then $50K a year??? I really hope you’re not serious… I was raised by a single mother who made on average less than $8/hr back in the 80s/90s. And to this day makes less than 50k/year and she lives just fine. I don’t know you personally, but that’s a born with a silver spoon comment in my eyes. Most of the population makes less than 50k/year, considering I think the median income in buffalo is something like 38k I believe. ---

i dont think it’s in question whether or not you can, but whether or not you would want to and whether or not a $50k job is considered ‘good’. ---

I still don’t understand how anyone could not live comfortably on less than $50k. Maybe it’s because I grew up dirt poor but I now feel like I could live like a rockstar if I didn’t save all my money. ---

50k gross is about 30k after taxes and deductions. $2500 a month. A mortgage on even a modest place is $1000 a month, more with escrow for taxes and insurance. Then you have a car payment, insurance, gas, electric, cable, internet, cell phone, food, clothing, most likely student loans, and god forbid if you have any kids. If you’re lucky you have a few hundred left over for entertainment and savings. Sure, you can rent and have a lot more, but that depends on what type of environment you want to live in. $50k will allow you to live semi-comfortably, especially for a single person, but it’s hardly “rockstar.” ---

I always forget to factor in the savings of being in a relationship, it’s a lot cheaper when you split all the living expenses. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/buffalo-a-miserable-sports-city-with-no-jobs/209628.md?page=1)
