'An economic divide that is widening': Almost one third of Americans earning $150,000 a year or more say they're living paycheck to paycheck and many rely on credit cards to close the gap - eviltoast
Some say they won’t be able to pay off their credit cards by the end of the year.

    My combined household income is more than 150k per year and I have not changed my spending habits since I was in college… caveat being I own a house but my mortgage may only be twice what I was paying in rent. Also I now have healthcare.

    Still living paycheck to paycheck. I guess I’d be ok if I missed one or both my wife and I missed one. Though, my marriage would start to be in jeopardy after 2 or 3 I’d guess. Not that she would leave me because I’m not making enough but the added stress would quickly become unmanageable.
