Nothing wrong with aiming for more but if you think you need 150k to be comfortable I think it says more about you.

Unless you we're born with an expensive physical or mental anomaly in a county that has poor healthcare support?

Or you can't be comfortable with the unhoused in your city and you build, run, and operate a private halfway shelter?

Okay - okay - I'll cede. I think were both being hyperbolic. I'm genuinely not convinced that a particular income level makes you a monster, but I can grant that it is a yellow/red flag.
