Living on $500K a Year?

Um.. Lets not forget the cost of living in Wilmington Ohio is probably about 60% less than NYC...

Both my wife and I work in corporate jobs, we make about $195K a year, have no kids, and live in a 1 BR apartment. Most of this country, including the IRS and our President, thinks we are "Rich" ... we not only pay taxes through the nose, but you try paying $7.99/lb for cold cuts and tell me how far your paycheck goes...

The problem with this country is we measure everything by the almighty dollar, we need to start measuring by quality of life. A family making $80,000 in Wilmingotn Ohio is just as well off as a family making almost $200K in NYC.... however nobody attacks you for being "rich" and the IRS doesnt come looking for an extra 10-15% every year...

See for yourself...

No all of us in NYC are theives, we are hardworking middle class Americans like everyone else... To be considered "Rich" in NYC, you are truly looking at incomes over $500K a year... and yes I agree most of these Wall St. peckerheads should be hung in the streets, they robbed everyone in America... taking huge bonuses while the times were good and then asking for handouts when things got rough... sounds a lot like Socialism to me...
