Over half of Americans claim they're nowhere near achieving their definition of financial freedom, with 36% saying they have less than $1,000 in their savings accounts.
It’s hilarious for you to call me wealthy or privileged. In 2018 my income was about $17,000 and I was completely dependent on my partner.
I’ve worked for $6.85 an hour, I’ve been a dishwasher and a janitor and I’ve been unemployed and on welfare for long stretches, living off $600 a month.
I know where I am and where I’ve been. And it doesn’t change the basic framework of the capitalist meatgrinder.

I once made $9k in a year, and yet I am still wealthy now with my current 6 figure income.
You’re not wealthy but maybe you live in an area that makes such an income very useful.
I am literally in the top 10% of income in the US, which does indeed make me wealthy.
