400 - 500K income is a lot of money. Of course wealthy people can have high expenses and live beyond their means, but at that level, I fail to see how a non-extravagant lifestyle can produce an outcome of no savings even in the highest COL areas. Unless, of course, most of the money goes to taking care of your parents.

Laying out all my expenses would be like a meme, it's like I'm asking someone to feel bad for me for being privileged. I'm not. I'm also not spending on an extravagant lifestyle, I rent a small 1000sq foot house, I have a family, one paid off car and one car I have a loan on. I don't really look at prices at the grocery and I buy organic food and decent coffee that I grind and brew myself, but the idea of say, having a sports car to drive around with the top off, designer clothes, or even eating at fancy restaurants (or any restaurant more than once a week) sounds nuts to me. I'm not spending money on avocado toast or whatever the meme is. I'm trying to save to be able to buy a modest home where I live, and I can't. It's out of reach. Don't feel bad for me, I could move 1.5 hours away and live a super comfortable life, but the commute would of course take me away from my family.
