The American median household income is $70k but $40k after taxes.
>>
>>60996358
Median household income is $84k per FRED. Assuming single filer, your effective federal tax rate is 20% at that income so it is unlikely that your after-tax is only $40k, even if you're unmarried.
>>
>>60996368
Excise tax, sales tax, property tax, utility tax, vehicle tax
>>
>>60996368
Different places show different number. From 70k to $110k. It is $70k but $85k, sure.
It is hella low. Most Americans are poverty tier.
Should the retirement age be moved to 70?
>>
Americans are extremely poor
After taxes Europeans actually earn MORE
also Europeans pay less for tech, energy, cars,...
>>
Everyone is so jealous of America they have to keep fabricating cope. Sad!
>>
>>60996452
literally no one is jealous of your poor obese third world brown shithole where people get shot all the time

No one cares about your healthcare. USA is number one objectively. Even alien wouldnt know what the fuck europe is, its so irrelevant.
>>
>>60996436
>Europeans pay less for energy
Lmao. You pay more in taxes on energy than what pay for energy
>>
>>60996479
number one in what?
wealth inequality in the developed world?
violent crime?
>>
>>60996479
Europe is irrelevant and no growth.
>>
minus $20k for housing expenses, $8,000 in transportation, and the rest on food its no wonder nobody is having kids.

what's the point of being le relevant when your people live in abject poverty?
>>

You sound like north korea trying desperately to be the main character. We numba one saaaars!!!! Its okay to admit youre a shittier version of someone. But to answer youre question why its important to be relevant...you dictate global culture, and thats already a huge branch.
>>
>>60996543
why is that important?
Europeans live far better lives than mutts and they're supposedly "irrelevant"
>>
>>60996495
How? I make $120k in a state with 6% tax rate and my taxes + benefit payments total $30k. Standard deduction, single-filer. How much are you contributing to your 401k?
>>
>>60996555
Americans live just fine, what a retarded argument. Oh wow they have problems? Shocker. Everyone has. If you like cherry picking then i can cherry pick that france looks like somalia, only the architecture remains of the glory days. When europe was popping im the 1700s i'd objectively say europe is superior.
>>

This is bait.
>>
>>60996570
>Oh wow they have problems? Shocker.
Yeah everyone has problems, europeans might miss their train because their previous train was late while americans get shot in their own streets all the time, totally comparable lmao
America is basically Somalia with money
>>
>>60996570
The high earning americans live fine as long as they stay in their suburbs and gated communities. Everyone else lives in highly violent thirdworld places full of homeless (compared to europe). Even Paris is still like 70% white and the blacks there are civil compared to american blacks and were employed. I visited Paris in may and it had improved a lot, very clean, easily the most beautiful city i have ever seen, more beautiful than Miami.

Nobody but women are jealous of the European lifestyle
There’s no upward movement for a competitive, driven man in Europe.
>>
>>60996358
NIGGERs
>>
>>60996658
Europe has goverments, companies, an unlimited amount of white women ect. where competitive, driven men can gain social status. I think most of WEF is europeans. Wishing to just retire early is not drive.
>>
>>60996436
We pay more for energy and consumables but yes it's true our income is more than just our monthly pay
For instance in my country we have 22 paid vacation days a year + we get 2 more salaries each year (effectively we earn 14 months a year)
This is not disclosed in our monthly salary but in the end we earn more
>>
>>60996769
I always see euro-cope about muh 20 vacation days. My company gives me 30 vacation days per year and I make twice the average household income in salary with a +20% bonus on top. You should try becoming a pharma exec, it's a pretty sweet gig. Only part that sucks is dealing with the legions of jeets that have no fucking clue what they're doing.
>>
>>60996436
> After taxes Europeans actually earn MORE
Bait has to be believable
>>
>>60996495
Unless you’re deferring a lot to a 401k and maxing a HSA, there’s no fucking way. Those are good choices if you are, but hugely important context.
>>
Notice the seething thirdie doesn’t say where he lives
>>
>>60996358
Europoor. 49k before, 35k after. Will get a pension too.
>>
>>60997531
And health insurance included. 14 pays. 25 days vacation.
>>
>>60996358
Now give me the median white household
>>
>>60996358
I live in south america and get paid US$35k/yr net. not sure what's my actual tax rate by since I don't consoom much and don't rent I save most of my income...
>>
>>60996769
I get paid 5 weeks vacation. Nice try Yuropoors. Sucks to be you
>>
>>60997329
In europe everyone has those bonuses, in USA it’s just the elite.
>>
>>60996358
How can anybody look at themselves if they earn less than 300k yr or have NW under 2m.

Like europoors or USAs, fuck it I'm a bong and I'm ashamed of it despite my 2m nw+.

>>60996436
That is the most false statement. Money-wise? Absolutely not. Not even close. The median European *does* live a bit “better” than the median American with stuff beyond money, but anything more than the median and we blow you out of the water, and it’s not even close.
>>
>>60997934
If you’re mediocre, live in Europe. If you’re among the best, you live here. It’s why Europe has no valuable company created in the last half century beyond Spotify. Your continent is a dusty museum full of Muslims.

What do Americans even do with all their money? Blow it up in casinos when they turn 60 or travel to cheap-ass thirdie shitholes and fuck children and ladyboys?

Is this the new HRE Meme? 'Not holy, not roman, and not an empire'? We list off a bunch of things that Euros hate about America and it turns out the functional opposite of every single one of them is true?
>>
>>60996479

Europe is the center of the world u fat piece of bacon
>>
>>61000194
Was. Was the center of the world. That was before Germany, France and the UK, the forerunners for Europe, all decided to enter into a mutual suicide pact and ship off that role to America for the next 200 years.
>>
>>60996358
You can directly judge how poorly America is doing based on the fragility of Americans online. It doesn't matter what the topic is from economic prosperity to public safety and Hollywood movies, if you suggest that America is doing poorly Americans will lose their fucking minds.
You honestly start to sound like the meme of Indians raging over being a superpower by 2020.

Pretending that everything is going great when it's actually going to shit as a way to save face is definitively brown behaviour.

And after rent and living expenses they are lucky to save 20k a year. Imagine working full time to only see your bank account grow 20k a year. Fkn brutal

Many mutts are constantly on fentanyl or meth. Sixty year old pot heads and meth heads. 50 million on welfare half of which are whites. Fucking trash everywhere. I think illegal immigrants are the least of their problems lol.

Majority of Americans don't have any savings.
