It is a good salary but unfortunately housing is killing people’s budgets these days. I would say if you can live simple, don’t always get the newest phone or the newest cars. And look hard for reasonable housing (whatever that is these days) you’ll have your bills paid and be able to contribute to 401k, IRA, savings. But truth be told, most people’s problems come from buying things they can’t afford and living above their means. You’re off to a good start it seems.
