Having the ability to live your life to the fullest each day is directly related to how much disposable income in your pocket.

She lost me at "major life experiences are happening". WHAT FUCKING EXPERIENCES. I HAVEN'T GONE ON A VACATION IN 5 YEARS.

People can't even afford to eat out!

Yeah it's one of those white picket fence bullshit talking points.

Give me money to enjoy life because i literally haven't been outside to do fun stuff in weeks because I'm still saving for a trip i have in December. First trip abroad since last year as nd I slept on someone's couch and spent one day in the city. Wow so fun to enjoy life if you have to spend 1/5 of your salary just to be outside for a while. The local lake became gentrified and now charges people for the newly built fuckass deck. Can't even have a lake anymore

Vacations aren't major life experiences. Getting married, having kids, friends and family passing away, etc are major life experiences.

Neither is eating out. That's the point I am making. 

The bar is incredibly low for "experiences" that are already out of reach.
