While I agree with the sentiment, the numbers seem wonky. Cost of living can vary wildly within a state.
For example. The apartment I rent out here in CT is 935 a month for two bedrooms. The same amount of space if I were to look in Fairfield county or a town like Simsbury could be anywhere from double to triple that.
Living where I do means I have a longer commute to work and have to deal with northern rednecks, but I get paid for my commute and hang out around this board so it's cool.
But yes, I do subscribe to the belief that if you work 40 hours a week, you should be able to life in relative comfort.
