### Situation
As a single worker at Microsoft in the high cost of living (HCOL) area near their headquarters, I am struggling financially despite earning a good salary. My disposable income is only $67 per month, making me feel like I am living in poverty.
### Challenge
The most obvious solution to improve my financial situation is to cut my rental expenses by moving to a cheaper location. However, this is not feasible for me as my role requires me to be available 24/7 to respond to incidents and be on-site within an hour’s notice.

****** just grabbed a
You’re putting a shit load of money into savings and retirement. In no way is that poor. If you want more frivolous spending money (which is totally a legit choice), then reduce your Roth contributions. It’s not that complicated. It’s seriously kind of insulting to say that this makes you poor though.
Come on man. You’re saving half your income and think you’re poor? Stop it.
You’re not poor if you’re saving thousands. This is so tone deaf.
You can easily save/invest a bit less, allow yourself to spend a bit more and still do very well financially.
This sankey is a hot mess. Use Income as the source node for the 401k Match, HSA match and stock discount nodes.
Why is rent + parking etc. together and then you’ve broken out power and such?
You feel poor because you are putting like 7.5k away each month. Poor people don’t have 90k a year in savings.
Dude you’re saving like $90k/yr. Also, your taxes are insane, do trad 401(k) instead of Roth.
Op: I’m investing $92k a year, help I’m poor.
You might have a poor understanding of the real world and what being monetarily poor actually is, but you are by no stretch of the imagination monetarily poor. If you want to spend more now, invest less. Also I would be contributing at least some portion of your income into pretax retirement or you won’t be able to take proper advantage of the lower tax brackets when you retire, considering the progressive tax rates in the USA.
Why are you saving that much for retirement? I saw below that your plan is to earn more in retirement than you earn now. That makes little sense. Your expenses will be generally lower and you won’t have to save for retirement then. You should make a more realistic goal for retirement and then you won’t feel poor now.
Thought I was in r/MiddleClassFinanceCircleJerk
You’re oversaving for retirement and doing it in the wackiest way possible.
Arguably, you should be maxing out traditional 401k. Doing ROTH makes no sense at your tax bracket. Are you maxing HSA (assuming yes, but not sure if you’re family or single).
401k match goes to traditional
At your current contribution rate no counting pre tax or match has you putting 55704 into Roth 401k which makes zero sense with the cap at $23k.
The amount of match is quite high.
So either something is way off in this chart, or you’re over contributing the front half of the year.
You should seriously talk to someone that knows what they’re talking about regarding switching to traditional contributions. Roth isn’t helping you at this income imo.
You can always contribute less to retirement.
Including benefits you make $170k a year and save $90k. Do you realize how saying you feel poor is very tone deaf? You save more than most people make pre-tax. You don’t have to put $7,000/mo. into ESP and 401k.
Actual poor people don’t get to save anything. Despite being poor they’d also probably understand that if you want to spend more today, then you save less.
OP, I live in the same region as you.
$3,100 a month for rent is a choice, and tbh you’re not going to get sympathy on the internet.
Microsoft has amazing benefits and good on you for taking advantage of them.
You spend about 5% of your income on “life”, meaning not savings and not housing. What do you do? What do you want to do? You say you feel poor, but you’re not even spending all the money you have allocated (67 left over). What I mean is, if you feel poor – what is your gap. If that 67 a month left over was 2k a month, what would change in your life?
Also, say it with me, IT IS OKAY TO SPEND YOUR ESPP. Take advantage of it, but every quarter id recommend cashing some out and wither putting it in a HYSA for an emergency fund if you need it, or something more broadly diversified.
Regarding the Roth 401k. Technically you’d be optimizing your tax savings by putting a bit more in your traditional 401k, but TBH I think there is a lot of power in flexibility. Keep in mind Microsoft’s employer match goes into a traditional 401k, not Roth. So you putting ~23k in a Roth means you’re getting 11.5k in a traditional automatically, then add on the after tax contributions too – if it was me, I’d probably tilt a little more towards traditional.
PS – you are able to schedule free financial advisor consultations through Fidelity (yay benefits). I would HIGHLY recommend doing this and talking Roth vs Traditional. Then maybe schedule quarterly check ins
Yeah if you o ly make about $12k a year, you are poor
Well you’re putting $6000 into savings per month and spending $3k on rent. If you need more cash, I think you can afford to lower the savings. And maybe look into a cheaper place to live.
Am i the only one who just shuts down at this point when seeing these budget flow charts people are posting all day long?
What in the world is the point of saving so much money that you can’t enjoy life now? Literally nothing budgeted for fun, entertainment, vacations. Proof that money cannot buy happiness.
I remember when I was super poor growing up and my parents couldn’t afford food. It was because they were saving almost 6 figures a year for retirement /s
You take home less than $4k a month… and 77% of that goes to rent/parking.
I’m getting a house built for $500K and the mortgage won’t be $3100, even at today’s rates…
Are you in DT Bellevue or something? A one bedroom in Kirkland or Redmond is easily $1,000 cheaper and it’s still 15-20 mins away
There is a such thing as over-saving. When you save so much that it’s financially harmful, you should back off on saving to give yourself some breathing room. At this rate you are on track to retire with 14mil in 40 years conservatively.
401k match is generally considered part of your income.
gahahahhahahaha
Do you have 3 months to 6 months expenses in savings for emergencies?
You say HCOL.
I see $7200/mo into Roth 401k & stock options.
Savings is good. Don’t stop that. But you’re not poor, you just need a better attitude and someone / something that gives your life value outside of work.
“I feel poor” compared to what you see on instagram/twitter?
Your rent seems really high for a single guy, even in Seattle.
If you can’t pull the money from somewhere else, then stop investing so much. If you’re about 30, then you’re on track to retire at 65 with around $7M (possibly even $10M). That’s enough to indefinitely spend $80k/yr in today’s money without relying on social security. If you’re worried, sit down with a retirement planner or financial advisor to figure out how much you need to have and how aggressively you’ll need to save; but I’d bet money on it requiring less than what you’re saving right now.
Where are your stock awards?
Do you live alone or have a roommate? If alone, probably a good way to lower the rent is finding a roommate
Lol
OP, you’re not going to get sympathy in this sub. Come join us in r/henryfinance that is sympathetic to high earners
[removed]
i hear you feeling poor. i praise you for living way below your means. you can choose to relax your 401k a bit. but you don’t need to. you’ve built a good safety net. i hope visualizing your budget helps put your mind at ease. you’re fine. you can breathe.
This is the epitome of “you’re alive, but are you really living?”
I feel bad for you, OP.
Live a little, man.
This is just sad and depressing.
your retirement plan most definitely doesn’t work the way you depicted it on this graph
you show 401(k) Roth contribution of $28,572 per year, while the limit is $23,000, so $5.5k are already disallowed, and if they are indeed contributed as Roth will be subject to 6% penalty for every year that you keep them in
your employer seems to match $28,572, so I guess dollar for dollar with no cap? now I know why Microsoft Office is so expensive
you could technically still get a _reduced_ Roth IRA contribution (phase out this year is $138-153k), so that’s where your excess contributions should actually go
your after-tax 401(k) Roth could easily be back door Roth IRA instead, maybe Microsoft’s plan is amazing and you like it very much, but you typically get lower fees and more investment options when going with a personal account at a big name brokerage
most importantly you are currently saving 25% towards retirement, getting a 20% match and then putting 16% extra into stocks. Not knowing how old you are and how much you already have saved, I can’t tell whether your are definitely over or underfunding it, but if you want to live a little you could easily pull $500-1,000 (maybe the $594 that don’t get a match) towards your discretionary spending
What do you do for Microsoft? I would expect they pay more than that for HCOL.
