I pay similar taxes in Norway on my salary. I guess if you don't have a pension and you have to worry about healthcare costs then this is reasonable. I dunno, I feel like if I was banking 5000$ a month then I would be quite happy. 60k a year on m$ft would make me very happy haha.

I don't have a family. What are your family expenses out of curiosity? Like school tuition and clothes and stuff?
