While CB is by no means some elite think tank, I generally think the demographics here represent a much more reasonable, financially intelligent and just down to earth population than average. I am stunned by the number of people saying 96k per year is not enough money. Its 50% above the nationwide median. Not average, MEDIAN. I dont think its necessarily a bunch of people living beyond their means although I am sure there is some of that. I think its just a representation of how spoiled we all are and dont even realize it.
