But it's not just Avacado's or expensive coffee. Where I work, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one that eats in every single day. Most people go out to eat for lunch. They are spending like $8-10 easy every day buying lunch. If you make your lunch you will save a lot. Then take going to bars on weekends, or going out to eat at night a lot or ordering pizza delivery, smoking, marijuana, beer, microtransactions, ect. It's a culmination of a lot of things, not just avacado's or expensive cofees that can save people thousands. |
"Approximately 62% of Americans have less than $1,000 in their savings accounts and 21% don’t even have a savings account, according to a new survey of more than 5,000 adults conducted this month by Google Consumer Survey."

Can have 1 in 6 with plenty of money, on the flip side the other 5 of 6 could be struggling to make ends meet.
