> The first example is a junior level social worker -- that's fine, but come now: we all know that social work is not a high-paying industry.
This is an unfair dismissal. Most industries are not high paying, therefore most workers are not earning enough to save. You're basically saying "they're not saving because they're not earning more!" Also, what is your proposed solution here? To stop having social workers?
> someone with three jobs, who still manages to save $200 a month!
Saving $200 a month is basically nothing, especially in NYC. It would take multiple years just to save a few months worth of rent.
