120k for a no kids household is more than enough for a house, expensive hobbies and travel.

With 80k you could easily afford a decent apartment, normal hobbies and occasional travel.

I dont have much knowledge about cost of living in the US, but I'd imagine it depends on cost of living in the desired place no?

I heard on Reddit about people making about that in a big city and struggling to stay properly afloat, not like I can really trust strangers on the internet, but it sounds plausible according to my own experience...

But they only got 18k each, so 36k instead of 80k
