I don’t know why posters are giving this guy grief. He’s right, that only the super-elite will be able to aspire to the quality of life upper-middle class families have enjoyed for several generations. And it’s all due to the inflation of fixed costs created by government policies.
“I don’t know why posters are giving this guy grief... it’s all due to the inflation of fixed costs created by government policies.”
I read the article. While you are correct as to the probably cause that has decimated millions, nowhere did I see him assign inflation or excessive taxation/regulation as the cause of his current problem. His lifestyle is bigger than his income. He can afford to live there, he is struggling with making the decisions to face that reality... like use public schools or home schooling, suspend all vacations ... otherwise he is right, he needs to work to make up the gap.
Since he is in Bay area, and some other facts mentioned in the article ... betting odds are is that he is a demonkkkrap. So criticism is warranted because he gets what he votes for and supports - he “can’t go there” in his mind and face the truth. Also, he probably would not welcome some good old Dave Ramsey advice - b/c Ramsey does not talk like demonkkkraps do.
This moron thought he could live in the SF Bay Area with only $3 million??? $3 million won’t cover the cost if a double-wide and a box of crackers in that area. He needs to find a new profession.
