Define “the US” because 25 an hour is living a life of luxury in much of the US that’s not a major city

$25/hr isn’t living a life of luxury anywhere. Not even in a town of 2,000 people.

$52k before taxes, about $41k after. It’s an ok wage a lot of places but I defniitely wouldn’t call it a “life of luxury” anywhere in the U.S. and I’m from one of the LCOL places in the U.S., the midwest.
You definitely won’t starve but you’re also not going to retire early.

I was slightly exaggerating sure, but 25 an hour outside of a city is a lot of money.

$25/hr is barely a living wage.
Are you factoring in vehicle payments, maintenance, insurance and fuel?
A lot of people have a cheap transit option in the city.
