I don't know, $1000 extra income is less than $10/hr extra than someone who can't save this money. This hypothetical person still can't save for retirement and they definitely don't have a house cleaner. $10/hr could be the difference between a junior and a more senior UAW worker. Or the difference between a UAW worker and a Toyota one. I can't call any of these workers rich. These aren't the rich people in my mind.
If you wouldn’t call someone with a disposable $50-100k in the US “rich,” you have no understanding of how bad it is out there.
I’m gonna need you to sit down with your house cleaner and ask them what life is really like for a lot of americans.
Depending on the city, $100k won't even get you shit. In a major city you need a minimum of $200k to think about buying a shitty apartment.
It comes with a house cleaner though right?
If you mean mice and roaches that will clean out your pantry, sure
How little money do you think having a personal house cleaner costs?
You don't seem to understand what "disposable" means. If it's money saved up for a house payment, it's by definition not disposable.
