ibjames, thank you for making me feel normal on this forum with your last post. 🙂 As for trying to save money, I hear ya, and trying is the operative word there. I mean, we are saving, but the rate we would need to save at to get to $100k in a few years is ridiculous- I can tell ya that cutting out cable wouldn’t get me there any quicker. Living in a cardboard box for 5 years might, though!
I have to agree, looking at the people I know (who cover a large spectrum actually, ranging from Harvard law to high-school dropout, but mostly comprising of us Joe 6-packs), I see few people (especially in their 20s) making the sort of money that a lot of people on here talk about.
It’s probably because a blog of Piggington’s nature doesn’t really appeal to most Joe 6 packs, so they don’t really get a good representation on here.
