It's pretty great having a few grand in cash to throw around every month, but man do you live in a bubble if you think 'most' people do that.

I make less than 30k/year, so I'm not exactly rolling in it. Although I'm highly unusual because my very realistic earning potential is 3x what I currently make (STEM grad student).

Still, putting only rent on a CC = 1k+/mo where I live.
