For those here feeling hopeless and afraid to post closer to median wages

Age 37, machine operator. $22 an hour, 45,760 a year.

I rent @ $850 a month(not anywhere close to the ghetto, a nice neighborhood actually). I live off around $21k, plus what I invest ($1,100+ a month) with $3,000 leftover what budgeting. If numbers math right, I'll have around $2 mil when I retire, assuming a 10% annual averaged return. Should eventually inherit a house, but currently I'm saving up for a down payment in 4 years incase the housing market gets better.
