These comments always irk me.

I am a "reasonably leveled FAANG eng" in Canada.

I have enough money to do the following:

- rent a 2 bedroom apartment in a smaller city.

- Order food from time to time.

Things that are difficult to afford:

- Any level of a car (currently car share). - I don't even look at house prices almost anywhere in my province.

My effective tax rate is around 48% and with the way things keep increasing in price I will likely never own a home.

Returning to the original question .... Am I rich?
