I'm retired so I watch my investments carefully. You have to make adjustments to roll with what the current economy is doing. So far this year I am doing pretty well.

How could you not be unless you are a professional sports player or a CEO?

Thank mentally gone Brandon and his dog shite policies for this.

Depends on your definition of worse off though.
I am not making less money (yet), but our company isn't giving COLA or any kind of increase (although we just hired a couple of more executives), and more and more of the healthcare cost is passed to the employee and has been for 5 years now, so my paycheck is less.

We've spent five years in Boise, and if we've only learned one thing it's that if you want something of value, you have to give something of value. Nothing will ever be free. We'd like a low house payment, we give up the nice growing city with the new Micron manufacturing facility and great parks system. We will deal with everything that comes with the house and save a whole hell of a lot more money in the meantime.
Well that’s at least 3 posters here who live in Boise.

I'd be really nervous about depending on my wife's unlimited OT in order to make ends meet since that's not guaranteed income.

Remember in the halcyon days of 2016, when we elected a man to reform our failing system? He was called Hitler for his efforts, then impeached twice.
Then he was such a threat to our so-called Democracy that he was banned from all social media.
And the people who called him Hitler still seem more interested in him to this day than the guy who they replaced him with.
And it has become apparent that this Democracy that he was such a threat to neither improves our lives nor provides us with a political voice to stop our quality of life from degrading.

I want to meet the 34% who aren’t worse off. Maybe they can give a fellow worker some financial advice.

I see how that seems funny, but I'm unemployed by choice. I took 18 credits of 3-400 level classes last Spring while I worked full-time before graduating in May. I then left my job for another that I hated. We decided we were moving a couple months ago and I felt burnt out. We had enough savings for me to stop working and remain unemployed until we move.
I have a job interview the literal day after we arrive in our new town.

I would be too.
Fortunately, we don't rely on her unlimited OT. It just allows us to save more money.
We try not to spend more money than one of us can make regular time. Our monthly expenses, even with inflation and our rent, hover around $3700.

jesus fricking christ @ that gif.
it's so much worse when you actually see the joe biden arse clown in action vs. just hearing about him being a retard and doing retard shite.

And the MSM, along with his groomer voting base, will tell you that he is all there, and his mental state is fine.

I received a 35% pay raise in June and I can't tell it even happened. I thought I'd be able to at least save more, but sadly that won't happen anytime soon.

I paid off all my loans during covid and right after it. I did not buy a new car or anything like that. I have not taken any vacation apart from brief car trips for three years.
My neighbors, who never saw a new car or trinket they could not do without just splurged (and took a cruise).
Now I have money, they do not and I bet you anything they are complaining now about their difficult circumstances.
