If you’re making 150k and are living paycheck to paycheck you either live in a crazy expensive area or are a total fucking idiot when it comes to managing your money.
Rent in NYC where I live is insane. My partner and I recently toured a place where they broke up the basement of a building into 4 apartments, none of which had a real bedroom, and were asking for $3k each
If you’re making 150k per year and “living paycheck to paycheck” you suck with money, full stop.
That’s more than double median household income
This is out of touch. There is a huge number of factors that dictate what amount of money is enough to live a fulfilled live. A bachelor can live a fulfilled life on 30k a year and still save money, but a family of 5 can definitely be living paycheck to paycheck on 150k, especially if they live in an expensive area.
Children are a choice, plan accordingly for the children’s benefit.
Do you not live in America? Children are not a choice is a country that doesn’t enshrine access to abortion.
Lol wat? Ever heard about condoms?
Ah yes, condoms. Famous for stopping rape and never breaking.
Look, I’m not arguing that restricting access to abortions is stupid. Of course it is.
But having children in our day and age is of course a choice. There are countless contraceptives available and what you mention are merely edge cases that are not responsible for people not being able to make a living because they pop out children non-stop.
