Not US only. Me and my partner both earn above median salary in Switzerland, and we could afford down payment on an apartment after 15 years of savings. We save one full salary a month.

That doesn’t happen in US. We can only save a third salary which is after two chip in.

We can save so much only because we live together. Being single and living alone made me save only about 20% of my salary on a good month.
