If you have a net worth over 93K you are in the richest 10% of the world. More than half of American adults are in that range.

I just started doing estimated cost calculators for out of state and liberal arts colleges and as a high income person holy crap! And of course it's biased towards homeowners. 

:flush:

like this really grinds my gears even though everyone here owns a home but me. I have a modestly large investment account that is to potentially use to purchase a home in the ridiculously expensive areas I choose to live in. But because it isn't wrapped up in my residence it counts against me for FAFSA! such bullshit! :curse:

yes this has probably always been this way but I didn't care until now

This thread is like the comment section of a Fox News article.  A bunch of geriatrics living in flyover country ranting about how 400k is more money than a household could ever need.

$400k/year is more than any household needs, unless that household is run by a complete idiot.

I’d settle for just one example of a non-idiot struggling on $400k/year.

I think Mich is being smart to not buy insanely priced real estate where he’s currently residing.

Using your guys logic we should raise taxes on anyone above the median income level.

That blows my mind, too! Granted Brooklyn is enormous.

Also I personally would need to make lifestyle changes if I were making $400k and paying full tuition for 2 private colleges. Not sure I'd call it "struggling" but there would be adjustments.

Currently, people making  > 400k of ordinary income are like the only people paying their fair share of taxes (especially those living in high tax states)

Get rid of all the loopholes
Tax capital gains as ordinary income (another loophole)
