Where the FUCK do all these people get money to buy BMW’s and take vacations every year and wear Polo clothes and drink Starbucks? What the fuck.

This. These people on vacations and living a lavish lifestyle have no savings, no retirement, and probably have 30k in credit card debt that they'll never climb out of.

I KNOW you are smarter than that. THE FACT that your here on biz trying to learn something, YOU WILL make it. SAVE MORE spend less. Live in a van if you have to, pay a monthly membership at planet fitness to shower and shit if you have to. Eat beans/rice if you have to. DO WHATEVER it takes. ITS EASY if you think its easy. If you think its hard it will become impossible. You can do it user, Save while your young. If your not young, start saving. You just wont have much time as the younger folks

Where do they get the money? It's all on credit cards, paid off every month. Most people I know carry enormous amounts of debt. Or they refied their houses, pulled the equity out, and spent it. The entire granite countertops/20k Disney vacation thing was fueled by that. Most of the growth in the US in the last decade was based off of it, not foundational growth. The good news is, foundational growth is returning, slowly.
Also, your list contains a lot of optional shit. You don't have to be married, own a home, or own a car. You can always find cheaper versions of everything. Most people could probably chop 25% of their monthly expenditures and not really notice it, like not spending $6 for a cup of coffee, or not wasting money on 200 cable channels you never watch. Cable was the first thing to go for me, it's a complete waste of money, and then you won't have people yelling at you through advertisements to spend more money you don't have on shit you don't need. Keep your debt low, and only buy what you need. If you're single, you don't need a 3 bedroom house. If you HAVE to own, buy a small cottage or condo. More space means buying more shit to furnish, decorate, and heat/cool it. Get your spending under control, get rid of the "owning stuff" mentality, and find reasons to exist that aren't based on an hourly wage or spending money. Live for what you do when you're not working. Don't live in big cities, live in small towns, have a small profile, and try to enjoy life.
No, debt does not pass down, but it will eat away at your inheritance.
If your last remaining parent dies, with 25k in assets, but 50k in debts, the estate sells the 25k to pay off half the 50k, and any state/federal taxes. The executor of the estate does this. Anything left over is given to the heirs - in this case, you'd simply get nothing - and owe nothing. That's why parents who are taking on new mortgages late in life are fucking their kids - they'll owe on the house, so the house won't pass to the kids when they die. I saw that happen to a couple people I know. Banks and credit companies are trying to get the laws changed to extend the obligation to heirs, but thankfully they're shut down every time. So far.
Luke Russell
>Implying cash-generating assets are not federal reserve fun bux as well.
Fucking brainlet.

Debt doesn't get passed down, dummy. At least not in the US, or any first world country I'm aware of.
Jayden Diaz
A SaaS business. The problem is if youre not a developer you won't be able to maintain it to keep up with the competition (and there will be competition). Another problem is that if its actually successful, you'll need to pay 10x the yearly profit (for a physical business its usually 3x), if its for sale at all.
Benjamin Lopez
I don't even manage to spend half of my salary every month in everything your listed. My salary is between the median and the average for my country.

>Where the FUCK do all these people get money to buy BMW’s and take vacations every year and wear Polo clothes and drink Starbucks? What the fuck.
You don't buy new BMWs, you lease them and update when the lease is up. Never hold onto those things when shit starts breaking. A majority of all BMWs, Audi, Lexus etc drivers are posers acting like they have money. You can lease one for the same cost as owning a Toyota.
Jaxon Perez
Are you retarded? Europoors can't even afford cars. Our middle class makes more than your "upper class" hahahahahahahahaha
Nathaniel Peterson
Nobody can afford any of this The companies that sell it all can't afford it either. The only people consistently in the black are the banks.

Agreed. Most of the people that have that stuff have a lease or they aren't saving any money.
Isaac Taylor

Carson Harris
Most people have no savings. Most people owe more than they can ever hope to repay. 40% of Americans have less than 15k in retirement funds. Too many people are counting on Social Security for their retirement.
SS is the ticking time bomb. Now that waves of Boomers are starting to retire and draw from it, it's going to collapse. Most of the SS funds are IOUs from Congress, who spent it all on pork barrel projects for their buddies, and on bailouts for banks.
There's a shitstorm offshore, and moving closer every day. I hope I'm dead before it hits, but more and more I think it will, before 2030. And when it does...it gets ugly. Really fucking ugly. Like, the American public finds out the cupboard is bare, the government spent it all, and there's nothing left.

I don't get it, unless you have a really shitty job or your country is shit, you should be able to accumulate a nice amount of savings regularly.
>>work 7 Days /week yeah, unless you figure out other sources of income or live frugally >>wear shitty clothes oh no, baby can't buy SUPREME brand clothes? >>eat shitty food eating well isn't expensive >>use shitty services what in the fuck >>forego anything fun I'm literally crying :'( >>forget about your wife staying at home surprise surprise, normieshit frogposter >>drive a shitty car well boohoo >>live in a shitty house live in a house that matches your wealth
I'm not saying your country isn't shit, but if your finances are shit it's most likely your own fault.

Don't buy into the scam bro, live modestly, invest prudently, and you'll be fine.

Credit my friend. Credit. They're all in 30k worth of debt but all their friends are in 30k debt too so they don't worry about it.
