Well that depends on what your cost of living is. If u got your mortgage fixed and got it during the recession like me then 20 to 30 is a lot because my bills are low and I'm able to save money. I also have great credit and get the best interest rates on my car payments . My mortgage is under $500 and that's including homeowners insurance and property taxes. And it's a 3 bedroom 2 bath home with a brand new 2 and a half car garage in a decent neighborhood about 1200sq ft. So if you been working on getting on your bills to its lowest they can be then u can save alot to use towards vacations and other big ticket items or investment. I just got a newer suburban about 3 weeks ago and the dealerships banks wanted to charge me 8% interest so I went to my credit union and they gave me the loan at 5.5%! So it all depends on if u was already set up before covid or if u bounce around and rent . People are getting ripped of renting right now. My home in the recession was $58000 now it's worth double and my credit score is above 800. And on top of it all my insurance for home and car are put together with AAA and I never in 20+ yrs have let it lapse so I got 2 full coverage policies on my cars for around $140 a month. So a lot of people where already set up like me and then u have people who haven't established themselves yet so it wouldn't be much to these people. If u have to spend over $1000 on rent which now is on the low end then your not making your paycheck go far.

Resi, front load, roll off etc. At my site I’m not required to travel but I like to because it’s great extra pay. If I want to stay home I will just stay here and bounce around.

YOU clearly have not worked a day in your life, so you should probably tell those garbage men to pick it up.
