That’s just enough money in the US to not be poor. It’ll get you a decent sized house in a decent area with decent school system… you’ll have a car maybe 2 if they’re good deals but they’ll likely be used or upside down in value.

Maybe you’ll get holidays off and some PTO. You’ll have enough to eat out occasionally but not really enough for a fine dining experience. You might be able to afford high medium to high quality grocery food.

What would be considered middle class? So $60k here is upper class..

But my wife is a medical DR and I’m just a normal sales person and we don’t even get close to that…

100k before taxes is solid middle class.

Interesting… here in Africa you will have the best life ever on $100k nett…
