>> No.55725541

So what is the income? Google says 65k or some shit on average or median about the same but I don't see people making that. Am I being jewshily tricked?

40 hours a week x 52 weeks =2080 hours 65k divide by 2080 = 31 an hour, I don't see peopleaking that on average at all

It's not 65k median for a single person, dumbdumb. Also average and median are not the same

Children and Uni students don't work, and there's a dearth of retired people. Of the remaining people many live in homes bought for fairer prices at low interest rates. Some live in inherited property. The rest just forego having children.

It's only rough if you're starting out and trying to make it all on your own starting from 0.

65k would be like 31.50/hr on 40 hours, and that before taxes.
I guarantee you the vast majority of the country makes significant less than that.

that statistic is only correct if you cound part time employees and people unemployed and people on social security. If you are only counting fulltime employees than the number is closer to 70k.
