    Six-figure earners “are concentrated in the largest and most expensive metropolitan areas in the United States, where the living costs are higher,” Adams said.

    That and student loans are a big part of it.

    To make 100k you likely have a bunch of student loans and need to live in an expensive area.

    There’s way too much variation in America to act like numbers mean the same anywhere.

    The more people unite against billionaires, the more we’re going to see rage bait where the goal is to draw the line anywhere else.

    America is fucked, and it’s fucked for some people even tho they make over 100k, they’re nowhere close to the problem.
