Better than the elitists? They are the elite.

  Ha! I was going to edit my post with exactly that, that is correct. 500K/year is probably top 2%?

    The elite are not the ones making a tech salary and spending 1/4 of it on their rent. The elite are the few who are writing those tech salary paychecks.

      Agreed. The difference between the top .01% and top 2% is many magnitudes larger than the difference between those 2% and the other 98%. (Sorry no source.). But both seem to contribute to the increasing inequality.

      I bet the people making $7.25 an hour would consider the $500k/year FAANG crowd pretty elite. Also if you own enough tech stock then you are also kind of writing the paychecks.
