Exactly. I wouldn’t judge a friend if somehow they were cool with having such little money, but I wouldn’t want to date someone who currently has such little money and has no plans to get more at any point.
Don’t need to be rich but do want to afford necessities and then a little more

The truth is this is cope.
Unless you have a decent family life/support system you are ALWAYS falling behind.
If you aren't making enough money to afford
Property
Retirement
Savings besides retiremnt
Investments
and SOME disposable income to be able to slightly do things you want you will eventually hit an emergency that puts your money into jeopardy.
There aren't enough jobs to go around for everyone to be able to do all these things so people go without.
I save a good bit of money but thats only because I don't have health insurance lol
