Who they live in the USA, by earning 5000-8000 $ a month, how can you live there?

Can you rent a good home in the center or suburban areas?
Can you buy brand cloths?
Can you go abroad for your vacation?
Can you enjoy life? Going restaurant, cinema, concert…. often?

My wife and I could certainly live with $8,000 a month, since we are already living on quite a bit less. We own our suburban home, plus a car for each of us, free and clear/ no notes/ with no loans. Do we go abroad for vacations? Not any more. We did go on mission trips a few times a decade or so ago. We did see Niagara Falls in Canada. Clothes? Some. We get good deals on decent stuff at Costco. Cinema? No. We rent DVDs. Restaurant? Yes, we spend our charge card points on meals out. Concerts? What person/group would be worth what they charge these days? Not worth it.

Yes we can afford all of that. Traveling abroad is very expensive. It's not like in Europe where you can go from country to country in an hour or two. It takes a 14 or 16-hour flight but yes we can afford all of that.

Depends on where in the U. S.

In Alaska I had a roommate. I was taking home 4k a month. I was able to go on vacation (when the job lets us) and enjoy life.

Going out to eat and watching movies was fine as well. No concerns.

It depends where you live. There are places that are really expensive to live. 100,000 would just about let you live a modest lifestyle. Other places you could get by on half ad much.

Most people in the US don't make that much money per month. A person could live like a king on $5,000 a month unless they live in the very few overpriced cities.

Depends upon where you want to live. $5000 per month in Coastal California will require roommates. In Tennessee you might be able to get a mansion.

Can you cook and clean house?

Can you birth children and take care of them?

Can you work at a job eight hours a day?

[Guy13]

Yes you can except in major cities.

It's that takehome or pre-tax?
