The High Income Poverty Trap | Rich on Paper, Broke in Reality

Описание: High income is supposed to solve money stress. But a growing number of six-figure and even high-earning households still feel paycheck to paycheck, with little cash cushion and constant financial pressure. This video explains the high-income poverty trap: how lifestyle inflation, fixed-cost commitments, and social comparison can scale spending to match any salary.

You’ll learn why “more income” often fails to create security, how real wealth accumulators behave differently from people who look wealthy, and the practical signs that your lifestyle is outpacing your margin. The goal is clarity: understanding the pattern, identifying where it shows up in real budgets, and seeing the simplest levers that actually change outcomes over time.
