If you replied with this you don't understand the difference between income, expenses and savings.

Your lifestyle has to do with your expenses. You can have savings and a sizable emergency fund but if you don't find a job that pays you as much or lower your lifestyle.

I fully understand it, I just keep my expenses significantly lower than my income.

Raising lifestyle to match your salary is a hedonistic treadmill.
