1/3 of Americans earning $150,000+ a year say they're living paycheck to paycheck

What does "paycheck to paycheck" mean, though? I have a positive net worth and I make well over $150,000 per year, but I don't have thousands of dollars in cash just sitting around. Sometimes I might have $1,000 - $2,000 "extra" after I get paid and pay bills, but I mostly use that to pay down a home improvement loan.
So yeah, I might only have $500 or less in my checking account sometimes, but it's mostly because there's no real advantage to sitting on cash.

Yep, you are one of the idiots.
If something terrible happened to you like happened to the people in Maui then you'd have to throw yourself on the mercy of the state for your basic needs (have everyone else pay for you).

Money is worthless. Learn survival and skills in homesteading. Then you don't need money. Maybe around 1,000 a year. Just sells eggs and milk.
