All said, respectable - “live with almost no property at the cheapest rate available” is not terribly bad advice. But again, I think even following that advise would be a higher cost for lots of people in many places in the world.
But is that really the world we want to build? “Okay everyone, aim for the bare minimum?” I know I’ve been lucky in my life and haven’t had to struggle often - but I don’t think it’s unfair to assume that everyone should be able to enjoy luxuries from time to time.
Unless you we’re born with an expensive physical or mental anomaly in a county that has poor healthcare support?
Or you can’t be comfortable with the unhoused in your city and you build, run, and operate a private halfway shelter?
Okay - okay - I’ll cede. I think were both being hyperbolic. I’m genuinely not convinced that a particular income level makes you a monster, but I can grant that it is a yellow/red flag.

Nothing wrong with aiming for more but if you think you need 150k to be comfortable I think it says more about you.
