What salary is deemed respectable? - davidjohnson - 11-05-2024
How much does soneone need to earn per year to have it deemed respectable by society?

Completely depends on area. I would say personally 80k a year

Yeah, as the user above said, it depends on where you live. $10k monthly won't get you much ahead in the US, but you'd be a king in a third-world country lol

making 100k in the us is fine as long as you're not in CA

Average salary for the U.S. is about $60K a year. Considering many fall below the average, I find that to be more than respectable.

Cost of living is obscene in some places.

A pseudo-marxist answer would be what makes you're surplus value as low as possible

Respectable to who though?
Who's opinion matters to you?
If you're making $20k/ year but manage to survuve and be happy... then $200k/year and being miserable as fuck isn't even appealing.

40-80 depending on location and field

probably like 100k+, but it depends where you live. Ofc even 60k can be enough, but I think 100k+ USD is deemed respectable.
