You didn’t just claim $421,926 per year for a family in the Bay Area is “basically poverty level” did you?

Some people seem to have a very skewed perspective on "poverty". "After paying all of the expenses for my upper-middle-class lifestyle, and saving for retirement, and supporting my aging parents, I have barely anything left over. It's basically poverty!!"

Classic Hacker News: I earn $800k at my FAANG job which puts me barely above the poverty line in CA. Please don't raise my taxes or I'll be living under a bridge.

You see, after funding my incredibly comfortable lifestyle and saving for retirement, I only have a thousand per month to spend on toys.
