![Please someone tell this woman that she urgently needs to work 40h per week in a cubicle to create profit for some soulless company to be happy [564x846 - 143KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/St6p7a.jpg){kind=link}
I grew up in a big family on $30K a year in household income. I make 5X that a year with a much smaller family and we’re not happier because we can go out to eat more often or buy every piece of China shit toy.
You grew up when? The 70's? The 80?
1975 - $30k is 1985 - $60k is 1995 - $75k is 2005 - $90k is 2015 - $200k is 2021 - $350k today
Your 5 times isn't even half the standard of living from 1975.
And even at $150k, you shouldn't be buying China shit toys. And, is that $150k on two incomes? Cause $75k with even a small family is tough, so that stay at home mom thing won't do very well. If that's all your income, then you should be happy with stay at home mom, just like your dad was, making more than you, in his time.

I can’t level with you because you think making $30K/year in the 90s and 00s provides anything close to what I provide for my family.
Is English a 2nd language for you?
I said $30k in 1975 provided for a large family without a 2nd income n and then listed out what $30k in 1975 was in equivalent earnings in 85, 95, 05, and 2021.
In 2021, $30k from 1975 is $350k. You can't "level" with me because you can't read.
