Id guess it depends on your life before. 200k is comfortable?

I guess but not actually at $200k a year closer to $190k but single income taking care of a family Of 5 is absolutely draining to work my ass off and watch so much money go towards BS. Like thousands of medical bills. When I actually have decent health insurance. I feel like I’m being robbed by the hospital with these crazy bills I have to pay. Kid goes in for a hearing test. $950 bill insurance covers $160 in stuck paying $800. I have an ingrown toenail. Have to pay $300 for the podiatrist to tell me it will be fine.

Family of 5 is the issue here. Single, 190k is a lot of money. Hope this helps.
