I don't consider them my enemy. I consider them privileged. Am I supposed to weep for them that they can't buy their kids the top of the line xyz or go on vacation this year? Should I spend emotional labor because they need to move to a smaller house or stop eating out? 6 figure salary isn't rich these days I grant you but it is a comfortable amount unless they're trying to live beyond their means.

    Six figures could be anything between 100k and 999k. If they are on the lower end, they aren’t really that privileged, especially if they are living in an area that necessitates a pay that high.

    Hell, there are some places that 100k would be closer to the regions “poverty line” so to speak.
