    I'm not sure if you are purposefully going out of your way to offend people, but you are very very wrong indeed.

    You are not taking into consideration what their family size is, larger sized families need more money than smaller. You also are not taking into consideration where the person lives, in some places of California for example, 62k per year affords you a very good life for a family of 4, in other places it doesn't even afford you a one room apartment or the ability to support one person.

    Because of the way you have said some things, I would like to know what exactly you do for a living, and what level of a scrapper you believe yourself to be. And if you are a level 4, how in the world did you ever make it. That would be a story I would like to hear.



    But insulting people who make over 60k a year is not the way to go about getting your point across, whatever point that is you are attempting to make.

    At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new. This is how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense. -- Carl Sagan
